Are there any Rotarians who are going to the convention in Toronto in June?

Chizuru · May 24, 2018

I will be walking the Camino Frances for the first time in September/October this year (2018) and I am also a Rotarian who will be going to the International Convention in Toronto in June. I was wondering if any other Camino Friends who were Rotarians are also going and would like to gather to meet like-minded Rotarians and share experiences, tales, tips, etc.

Chizuru, welcome to the forum. It is usually more welcoming to new members. I will try to connect you to a pilgrim friend of mine that is also a rotarian and lives in the GTA (greater Toronto Area). She will be able to help you. Buen Camino!

Thanks fellow Canuck, Ingrid for extending a helping attitude to Chizuru. At times I’ve felt unpleasant hostility on this forum, clearly not in the spirit of El Camino.

Of course it makes sense to connect with other pilgrims, if you can, at this event. It's like me saying 'are there any other pilgrims here in Atlantic Canada?'

Anyway, hope you find some connections and Buen Camino! I am walking the Norte at the same time and aim to be in SJPD Oct 9th-ish.

Buen camino fellow Canuck! I hope to hike in Atlantic Canada later this summer.

Welcome to the forum, Chizuru. Hopefully you will make connections with other pilgrims/Rotarians, followed by the lasting friendships that mutual interests bring. Buen Camino!

Hola peregrina and fellow Rotarian - I will be at the conference in June ... would be happy to connect and chat! I am the person @IngridF mentioned to you.

I would love to catch up with you at the convention, SimLin. Very excited at the prospect of meeting a few fellow Camino adventurers.
