Hello everyone,
In October 2015, i decided that i would hike El Camino, at the time i knew so little about the pilgrimage way other than the history and the fact that it still exists.
I hiked the Camino Frances during April & May 2016, solo. I'm a traveller, i love people, and along the way i met very nice people with whom i know we will be life long friends.
I'm a Muslim, and from Saudi Arabia, and i think i'm one of the very first from my country to ever go for this pilgrimage. It was very interesting to see people's reaction when they knew where i was from, and asking why would a muslim ever walk all the way to Santiago. I enjoyed the countless times that i was told that i was the first Saudi to stay at the Albergue.
I guess i just wanted to thank you all for the support and assistance, for the helpful notes, advice and information.
This forum was and still is a valuable source and i can't thank you enough.
Until my next Camino...
Salman
