New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
You will find plenty of camaraderie on the Camino :)
Buen Camino
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
You will have a great time. Buen Camino!
Hi, I'm heading off from SJP and stopping overnight in Orrison on the 6th.
Looking forward to some shared commradarie on my solo journey. 😊 Jo from South Australia (Lofty 1 on this site).
Go and enjoy as soon as you cross the bridge at st John you become a member of a very big family. The camino family. Good luck God bless.
 
Have a safe and wonderful walk Lofty. Sue from Western Australia.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Take it very easy for the first few days Jo. Allow your body to fall into a natural walking, rythym. It isn't a race!

Having said that, you'll have no trouble meeting people especially if you stay in Alburgues.

At dinner at Orrison, you'll have the opportunity to introduce yourself and say why you are walking the Camino.

The funny thing is that you'll probably keep on bumping into people that you meet then, all the way to Santiago.

Buen Camino!
 
Buen Camino Lofty. Orrison is a great spot for your first night and to meet so many others, to share your reasons for walking the Camino etc. You will meet so many people on your Camino, some will pass you or fall behind, depending on your pace. To reiterate Walton above, it’s not a race, it’s your Camino and you will settle into your own pace. Di (currently travelling Australia in a caravan but ex Sydney and planning my second Camino).
