- Camino Frances (April-may2018)
Hi all
I will be beginning my first Camino (Frances) on the 20/21st of April 2018.
I have been reading about it for some time and loving this forum. I am now in the lead up having difficult making final decision on some of the details. Your expertise is required:
-due to limited time I will be walking every day. I would like to start in SJPdP, but this is likely to mean I will need to complete double section days later in the walk, or do some bus travel. I am generally against using buses for hike sections. But have heard that the SJPdP section is one not to miss.
-otherwise, I'll start in Roncesvalles or Pamplona. Any pros or cons re starting here instead of SJPdP?
- do I really need a sleeping bag? Due to budget I will be looking to stay in most basic pilgrim alburgeus along the route.
- how does one go about washing clothes/socks on the route?
-can a pilgrim stay in a pilgrim hostel the night before commencing their Camino?
Any other hot tips very welcome!!
