Hello,
I'm gonna start my camino on May 17th, so I'm already getting excited and a little bit nervous. Especially as to whether the camino will be full of people or whether there still are places, or moments, where you can walk (more or less) alone? Don't get me wrong, I like to meet new people (and I'm actually looking forward to it) and I surely don't want to be alone all the time! But I don't want it to be like on popular beaches where people fall over each other ... this would annoy me if it constantly was like this ... I know, I tend to dramatize things sometimes
And I also don't want to run or fight for beds. That would be like the competition circle that we're already living in our 'real' lives I guess. So I'm taking a carry-mat with me. That way I'm more independent and I can also maybe walk later in the afternoon when most people already have reached their targets.
This isn't a very big worry though, it'll be the way it'll be ... And I'll try to relax and adapt. That's one of my personal challenges of this camino, I guess
But since I'm curious nevertheless, are there any people in here who did the camino last year in May/June and could tell me how it was back then?
Thanks,
Jerome
