Hi All,
I completed my first Camino just back in August and did many of the things I promised myself I would do on that camino to improve my life, one of those things was start my own business. I have done that and now can not envisage any real free time for quite a while but between Jan 1-Jan13th (encompassing my birthday) I do have that period as its especially quiet in Spain (I live in Barcelona). So I wondered about a winter half-camino between SJPdP and Burgos. I know I'll likely have to skirt round Valcarlos but even still the weather could be pretty fierce.
Having been a fairweather summer Pilgrim back in August, is it a mistake to go out there at this time, am I in danger of blowing all my happy memories into a miserable trudge in the freezing cold, obviously I need a complete change of gear but could there be any other surprises in store? Did anyone regret a winter camino?
I had such a fantastic time the first time around, but I also know I'm not going to free in Summer or any other time this year, is it "too soon", should I grasp it or am I in for a rude awakening?!?
