- Primitivo May 2016
I plan to walk the Camino in May of this year. I have 3 weeks to do it and was originally planning to start in Leon on the Camino Frances and then go beyond Santiago to Finisterre. I like the idea, however, of completing a full route and learned that the Camino Primitivo might be a better option as I think I can walk the full route and still have time to walk on to Finisterre.
I have read that the Primitivo is less crowded which is good, but also that there are fewer English speaking people on the Primitivo. I am trying to learn as much Spanish as I can between now and May, but I'll be far from fluent. Should I be concerned about poor Spanish speaking skills?
I'd also be interested in hearing about any other factors that might cause you to recommend a route other than the Primitivo as my first Camino.
Thank you
