...Why do so many people miss the meseta out? and is this true that they do?...
It just confirms I guess that we are all different and our reasons for pilgrimage are too...
...I chose the part from Leon to Astorga... Of course, that may change when the time comes and I may choose another piece to miss. ..

Geoff3 said:Sometimes I walked with people Minkey and sometimes I walked alone, quite often actually, sometimes we would speak and sometimes I could walk in the company of someone else and not say a word for hours.
Some of the Camino I needed to do alone and be on my own, but some of it even though I needed to be silent and in my head was good to have the comfort of knowing someone was baside me if I needed them.
Silence really can be golden at times.
As for being a free spirit, I come at quite a price :lol:

Minkey said:You don't like corn fields??? Shame on you!
some of the best advice I have read on this forum! as is said on the Appalachian Trail over and over "HIKE YOUR HIKE"Geoff3 said:Xm, loved the way I answered my own questions there
I started in Pamplona and so missed the begining from SJPDP, 3 days walking.
I think, personaly talking, your pilgrimage should be personal and the way you wish to do it. To take my advice on what if any parts to miss out would make it less personal.
Wherevr you decide to start, or whatever you may chose to miss out, it is your journey and it will be just the way it is supposed to be for you so go and enjoy it and if you cant do it all this time, then as I am you could finish it at a later date. I am going back to walk from St JPDP to Pamplona later this year.
Buen Camino Lora
Yes, a lot of people, even well-trained people, skip the Meseta, which I think it is a HUGE, HUGE MISTAKE. I found the Meseta to be absolutely beautiful, most conducive to introspection, the most beautiful dawns and sunsets, and the NICEST people along the Camino. Some pics.Why do so many people miss the meseta out? and is this true that they do?
