Hi all,
I'm Maddie, i'm 17 at the moment, from Brighton, and am hoping to take time out from Art studies between June 2013 and September 2014, to do some musical travelling. A friend of mine recently completed the Camino from Pamplona, and told me about it all today. It sounds utterly inspirational.
My friends are all planning their summer holidays to various sunny locations- Barcelona, Greece... but it's going to cost them about ÂŁ450 each to go because of the decisions they've made about where to stay and flights etc, and this means I can't join them, which kind of sucks. But the pilgrimage sounds so perfect for me. The freedom and the closeness with nature, and the opportunity to meet people along the way appeals so much.
I'm only in the very early stages of considering my potential trip, but I was wondering if anyone had any 'student tips'- i'm not only thinking money-saving wise, though that would be very helpful. I've never travelled before other than a handful of times with my family, so it will be a real adventure! Someone suggested that I fly to Bordeax and take a bus to Pamplona. Are there other starting points that are closer that I can travel to as cheaply?
Any conversation is welcome! So, Hi!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
