First time Camino
- Time of past OR future Camino
- Walking the Camino in September!
Hi everyone,
I'm leaving for my first ever Camino (Frances) on the 26th September and whilst I'm really excited, I'm also really nervous.
I'm supposed to be doing the walk with a friend but it's not certain she can come. Faced with the fact I might be doing it alone and I'm a bit scared about it.
I'm married and I've been saying to my husband for years that I want to do a big solo adventure because I feel I'm too reliant on him whenever we go anywhere. I'd like to get to know myself, be comfortable in my own company and learn to trust myself. I know I'm capable of all these things, I've just put alot more trust in my husband over the years more than myself.
So my husband isn't doing the walk with me and he's totally on board and thinks it's a great idea. My question is.. has anyone else done it and left their partner at home for 6 weeks? We've never had even a week apart in 5 and a half years together, so I know this will be hard! Does anyone have any tips? Have you been in a similar situation and what did you do?
I'm slightly concerned because if there's no WiFi or signal anyway I won't be able to catch up with him in the evenings...
Sorry to ramble, I'm just feeling all the emotions I think!
