Hi. Got my airline tickets about a month ago! Air Canada: San Francisco - stop in Toronto - Madrid. (They already changed the plane and timing on me once...) I'll be walking the CF from Leon-Santiago.
I'll be staying in private rooms the whole way (in albergues where possible, plus hostels, other places, depending on availability and price), and I've already reserved my first two nights in Leon.
I'm still contemplating my first walking days (and wanna ask you about that, too, eventually) - I want to start slowly, but also may want to pick it up quickly - don't know - first time on Camino/first time with long-distance walking - but I hope to reserve 2 or 3 nights after Leon (being attentive to cancellation dates).
People who are traveling in October and/or those with a sixth sense - are you starting to make room reservations?
Thanks.
