Spontaneous intention to walk mid March !

[Kentishgal]

Hi all , I'm Patti , have some annual leave to use and have a yearning to come and walk for 5 days next month . Please let me know if this is not one of the better ideas proposed here lol ! Weather wise and time wise this might be insane . I have no idea where to start from and which route would be most sensible for this time of year ...I welcome all thoughts and suggestions ! Thank you

Hi, Kentishgal, and welcome to the Forum. Below is a re-post of mine.

----------------------------------------

The good news is, you are in a forum with a wonderful group of people. Most are here to help people like you to achieve their pilgrimage goals. We can offer you encouragement, knowledge, and point you in the direction that will help you help yourself.

My suggestion to start is this:

1. Take a deep breath. Write down in large letters the reasons why you want to go on Camino. Place that piece of paper where you can see it every day. That way, if anxieties and fears threaten to overwhelm you as you plan, you can just breath, read what you have written, and focus on those reasons until the negative stuff fades.
2. Make a list of questions and concerns that you have.
3. Go to the Search Engine at the top of the Forum pages.
4. Enter the words or phrase that you want more information about. You will get a huge amount of information to explore.
5. If you find that you need help with anything, post a new thread so that your question or concern can be readily seen. If you post a question within someone else's thread, you won't receive as big of a response.
6. Remember that perfect timing as it relates to how you feel, scheduling, and day to day life issues, seldom align themselves perfectly. If one waits for such to occur, doing something like a pilgrimage will always be in danger of taking a back seat while you wait for that perfect alignment to happen.

Hello

If you want the Compostela walk the last 100kms of any route.

In March the CF may have the most up and running infrastructure.

Go!

Buen camino.

March is my favorite on the French Way. Not crowded almost plenty of open places to stay and to eat. No
bugs, no sweat and very comfortable while walking in a long sleeve shirt and jacket.

I'm starting from Logrono in on 12 March if you are still intending.
