Hello new friends!

[rivergirl]

Hi all, I’ve been reading the Forum for awhile but finally decided I should introduce myself. I’m Marta, a 70-year old from Indiana, planning to walk the Camino Frances in May and June, 2025! Yes, I am excited! I will have several walking companions along the way, each jumping in and leaving at predetermined times. This is to satisfy my husband, who doesn’t trust me to walk on my own. It’s ok. At least I’m getting to go! I love reading your posts and have learned a lot from you all. Maybe I’ll see you there!

Hola Marta! Enjoy your planning and preparation. May/June will be here in a flash. You'll be off on your excellent adventure before you know it. Buen Camino!

Welcome Marta, it will be an experience you won't forget, and if you are like most of us here you will want to repeat it as soon as you can. Buen Camino!

Welcome! enjoy every minute, from the plane, to the trip itself (including the endurance challenge), and all that comes after!

You have been called, and you have found a way. Buen Camino.

Welcome, Marta!

I will have several walking companions along the way, each jumping in and leaving at predetermined times. This is to satisfy my husband, who doesn’t trust me to walk on my own. It’s ok.

You will have more than a few walking companions from the get-go. They'll be strangers at first, but not for long.
Buen camino!

Hi, Marta. Welcome to the forum. I'm from Madrid and planning also the Frances in May-June 25 to celebrate my retirement.
So maybe we'll meet on the Camino.
Here you will find all the information you need to prepare your Camino.
And tell your husband not to worry: You'll never walk alone.

Intend to walk the Camino May 5th if all goes as planned... starting SJPDP. Looking forward to it.
