Bonjour, Ola, Hello!! I am Gord from Toronto, Canada and I will hopefully be starting my 1st Camino from SJPP on Tuesday September 22. I leave Toronto YYZ on Sept 20, arrive in Paris CDG on Sept 21, SNCF down to SJPP for Sept 21 and if all goes well I hope to start walking / trekking on Wednesday morning Sept 22. I'm very excited to start my trek.

Buen camino! Perhaps good to hear that even for people with a lot of caminos behind some of us are stil anxious ahead of every start. Have a nice walk!

Stay safe and have a great time. Just make sure that you've worn in your boots fully - and Buen Camino!
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I live in Mexico and my wife is Mexican. (Things may be different in Spain as every country has its own language stuff) I saw Ola and I said wait a second OLA is a wave on the ocean isn't it? I asked my Silvita and she said yes when it is spelled that way. Hola is hello. So Holaaaaaaaa and have a great Camino. If they spell hello in Spain sometimes without the H I would love to know I am wrong. ;) :) 👍

In Portuguese we say olá, very similar to the Spanish hola.
 
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.
Hola Gord, from western Canada. I hope you have a great time. ¡Buen Camino!
