Jumping In

[jcruz1027]

Buenas! New here. New adventures. But 30 odd minutes ago I booked my flight to Lisbon and the Camino Portuguese. No idea what I’m doing or where I’ll start. But I’m Jerry and I’ve fallen in love with so many of the stories I’ve read here over the past few months that I wanted to have my own story so I’m all in.

Welcome! Yes, many of the Camino stories on this forum are testimonies of amazing and life changing experiences. Your new found excitement has given you the courage to book your flights...the first step in planning your Portuguese camino! I hope you will have a wonderful journey!

You do know there is a direct flight from Dulles to Lisbon??

 

[jcruz1027]

I do. But this kept the cost to under $1k ($725).

Buen Camino!
Be sure to see the Museum of the Coaches in Lisbon, and take the train for a trip to Sintra!

I join in saying welcome. I have to admire the commitment of those who cross the globe to walk to Santiago, it is a serious dent in your wallets. Look for the free lifts in Lisbon, they zoom you up to the castle in rag time! Gulbenkian museum excellent. Buen Camino, pilgrim!
