I am starting June 2 from St Jean, I tried to add my email name...cstephen
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Hello fellow Pilgrims,

My name is Elizabeth and I have just joined this forum.

This is a very useful thread in order to see if anyone else is starting on the same day........thank you!

All going to plan (and final preparations going accordingly) I shall be arriving in SJPP on Monday 16th May and intend to start my Camino (first time) on Tuesday 17th May.

By the looks of it - there may be a couple of others starting the same day :-) Maybe see you en route!

Best wishes and Buen Camino,
Elizabeth
 
I'm leaving May 29 th from St Jean...booked in at Orrison for the 29 th.
Getting a little nervous about making my trains from Paris. Arriving in Paris from Toronto at 8:45 am. Train from airport to Bordeaux at 10:16 - 14:37 Bordeaux to Bayonne 15:51 - 17:32 then Bayonne to St. Jean 18:06 - 1912 . A long night and day. Finding the correct trains etc also finding my way to Hotel Camou from the train. Not usually nervous just with language barriers no French or Spanish. Will this be difficult ???

I'm leaving May 29 th from St Jean...booked in at Orrison for the 29 th.
Getting a little nervous about making my trains from Paris. Arriving in Paris from Toronto at 8:45 am. Train from airport to Bordeaux at 10:16 - 14:37 Bordeaux to Bayonne 15:51 - 17:32 then Bayonne to St. Jean 18:06 - 1912 . A long night and day. Finding the correct trains etc also finding my way to Hotel Camou from the train. Not usually nervous just with language barriers no French or Spanish. Will this be difficult ???

To make your travels as simple as possible --
1 Here is a map/plan of CDG airport and where to find the TGV station for the train to Bordeaux.
2 Many tv-like screens list arriving /departing trains by number/destination/platform in all French railroad stations. Know your train number to learn the platform which is quai in French.
3. Hit here for a Google map marking the locations of the SJPdP station and your hotel so that you can easily navigate through the town.

Most importantly relax and enjoy your new adventure. You might spot other pilgrims on your trains who will be eager to chat.

Bon voyage and Buen camino!

Penny .. My remedy is to mentally put my apprehensions into a balloon and let the balloon fly up out of sight . No matter how much or how tight you tuck in your plans .. "stuff" happens. Go and enjoy . I have you on the list :)

I now have my travel booked and will be staying in Bayonne on the 16th of May then taking the first train to SJPP on the 17th which will get me there at 08.43. I plan to have a quiet day in SJPP then leave early on the 18th, so I may catch up with you along the way.

Buen Camino,

Mike
 
I wondered if anyone was arriving at Biarritz on Monday 16th and was wanting to share a taxi to SJPP?

My flight arrives quite late in order for me to get the train from Bayonne to SJPP.

I will be leaving on the 15th travelling by coach from Exeter to Bayonne via London and Paris and will arrive in Bayonne at 18.30 on the 16th, so will not go to SJPP until the next morning.

1 Here is a map/plan of CDG airport and where to find the TGV station for the train to Bordeaux.
2 Many tv-like screens list arriving /departing trains by number/destination/platform in all French railroad stations. Know your train number to learn the platform which is quai in French.
3. Hit here for a Google map marking the locations of the SJPdP station and your hotel so that you can easily navigate through the town.

Most importantly relax and enjoy your new adventure. You might spot other pilgrims on your trains who will be eager to chat.

Bon voyage and Buen camino!

We're from Michigan, USA. I just turned 60 6 days ago and my wife (Mary) turns 60 in June. We've been married 33 years. We have three sons and one granddaughter. This is our first Camino. I wish I was retiring soon, but it's going to be a few years yet. We just finished our first 24km walk today with full packs and all went well - no blisters! Only 17 days until we leave and we're both excited to be finally going. See you on the Way.
(Another) Joe (aka Kuznitz)
 
I'm from Panama City, FL. I turn 56 tomorrow. My husband had two young sons, I had three young daughters...we married and had twin daughters so we have 7 kids! We have two grandsons, three granddaughters and one on the way.

Hello,
I am starting solo my first Camino at Ponferrada on the 1st of May 2016 (next Sunday :)
Is this the place to register in the calendar? Would be nice to catch up with other pilgrims sometimes!
 
Me and wife (Butch & Evelyn) starting from St Jean on 2 June. My wife first Camino, 2nd for me.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Meredith when do you arrive? I have a bed at Beilari for the 12th but may get into town on the 11th and stay two nights. Look forward to seeing you on the trail.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I can't help wondering how many of you, fellows, have i seen/met on the way, this April.

If any (or not), pleased to share the path with you, guys.

I just learned tonight that a reservation is highly recommended so I started calling around and the Beilari was at the top of my list. Sadly, it's booked for the 12th as was every other place I called that does reservations. I finally got a bed at "la Coquille Napoleon" which is on the way out of town. I read somewhere that it's a nice place to stay and sits right on the Camino. I do wish that I could stay in town before having to head out (and up?) but now I'm looking into the possibility of travelling to SJPP and saving some time...I'm a bit behind in my planning as you can tell but I'm not big on planning when I travel and it all somehow works out in the end.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

I think I will be in sjpp on the 11th as well and have no reservation for that night, just planning to get a bed somewhere. Will you walk back into town to start your walk on the 13th or just head out your door and turn south towards Spain?
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!

I now have my travel booked and will be staying in Bayonne on the 16th of May then taking the first train to SJPP on the 17th which will get me there at 08.43. I plan to have a quiet day in SJPP then leave early on the 18th, so I may catch up with you along the way.

Buen Camino,

Mike
Starting on the 18th too - see you there!

I wondered if anyone was arriving at Biarritz on Monday 16th and was wanting to share a taxi to SJPP?

My flight arrives quite late in order for me to get the train from Bayonne to SJPP.

Elizabeth


I found my taxi share (leaving tomorrow for Biarritz!) on http://www.beilari.info/en
Many others looking for taxi shares and walking companions.

Buen camino!

Hi Daniel ! Your our on the list :) Welcome to the Forum and the Thread ! :) Buen Camino

Hi DeadFred and all,

I will board the plane late tonight and will be heading to Europe...

I will travel via Cannes (to see family who are attending the Film Festival) , Barcelona (to see friends) and then Pamplona before arriving at SJPdP on 13th May to start walking on 14th May.

It looks like my start date needs a little amendment on the calendar.

Thank you, DeadFred!

Just few days left until I leave home to start my third Camino from SJPP next week.

This short video and beautiful music is getting me in the mood. :)

 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Hi Fred, last minute switch from Camino Frances to Camino del Norte for me. I fly into Biarritz early tomorrow and hope to get a good start at Irun in the morning. Thanks!

Please add me to the list. I've just joined today and plan to fly to Madrid from Melbourne and walk from Leon to Santiago around June 20th. I have so much to learn by then and will very much be relying on this forum for information and confidence to go it alone.

I am in Pamplona, picked up my rental bike and ready to ride Monday morning.

Today I am in Azura. I have 40 km to go to reach Santiago. I am confident I will make it, by Wednesday and my Fight out isn't until Saturday.

I took the trail with my Mountain bike from Pamplona to just past Cirauqui. I crashed big time on a Roman road with my bike and bruised my hip. Then the washed out bridge, which was more like 3-foot block steps down a gulley and the block steps up made getting my bike up really hard. After I got up, I found more Roman road and walked the bike until I got to a park next to the N-111. It was a no-brainer to take the road into Estella. That is when I first abandoned MTB-riding the trail.

Then the weather started to go bad. I tried a short stretch, but the mud was bad. So in the rain I stayed with roads rather than muddy paths. I had a limited amount of Flex/weather/recovery/tourist days. I kept up my schedule (usually 40 to 60 km/day) until I got to Sahagun. At that point the weather just got to me. I took my bike on the train from Sahagun to Leon and took a break to recover and be a tourist in Leon. That really emotionally helped.

I checked the weather forecast, a lot more days of rain. So I did some soul searching as to what I wanted to do. I opted for plan B, another train ticket, but from Leon to Ponferrada. I get my 200+km bike Compestela and I broke the remaining rainy days into much shorter rides, that gave me time to recover, get dry, wash clothes, talk to people, see churches and towns and again enjoy myself.

The weather has recently turned nice again, but I know I made the right decision for me. I understand the Catholic concept of a veil of tears, I can do endurance events, but I wanted something else from my Camino. I wanted "a balance" of religious experiences, physical challenge, comradery and tourism. I think I found it.

Buen Camino!
