Hi all. Im 42m. I did the CF 2 years ago at the beginning of October from st jean pdp. I hadn't done any long distance walking before. I loved the meseta and despite walking into November the weather was mild and dry with maybe 0 degrees in the mornings at times and fairly lucky that it didn't rain much.
It was a party environment at the beginning. I enjoyed the meseta. And by the end, well i didn't love the crowds especially after Sarria but they thinned out for Santiago to Finisterre.
Ok now my question. I'm finishing up work in mid January and decided to do a camino de Santiago. Should I do the vdlp or mozarabe? I had my eye on starting vdlp in Seville but seems starting the Mozarabe in Almería is an alternative worth considering.
I only started researching both routes as i had wanted to do el norte but wasn't able to go in September and i think it's not a good option in January.
I'm not too worried about fitness as i don't have any injuries and did the inca trail earlier this year. I'd be more worried about bad weather and mud - I'm sure i can tolerate a few difficult days but i want to be realistic.
