- Time of past OR future Camino
- Camino Frances July/August 2017
Hello, I am planning on walking the Camino de Santiago in July of 2017 for the first time after studying abroad in Spain. However, I am uncertain as to which route I should follow. As it stands, I have up to a month and a half and am between the Camino Frances and the Camino del Norte (possibly with part of the primitivo). I want to see what people will recommend, so here are some of my considerations:
- I will be walking alone, so I want to find people to socialize with along the way but don't want it to be too crowded
- A practicing Catholic, I want to have a deeply religious experience
- I want to be able to see some good sights and scenery (nature and cities)
- Difficulty is not an issue
- I am studying Spanish (not quite fluent), so I'd like to practice the language and experience the culture
- I feel the Frances is more traditional and authentic, but the Norte has more places I want to see
Thanks,
Donald
