Hilarious, David! Thank the Universe that you didn't put up the link to the Rick Astley video with that earworm of a song! Millions of people have been tricked into that! I wonder how many Forum members would have been "rick rolled" if you had put up the link!
Cheers and thanks for the laugh -

Hi - going on your first Camino and nervous about walking alone and you are looking for a safe person to go with?
I recommend walking with Rick Astley! You absolutely know that ....

That's funny David! Thanks for sharing :-)

In all seriousness though, there are first-timers who do have reservations and fears about setting off on their own largely because they've never done it before. It's the fear and uncertainty of the unknown.

I would like to share my own story http://mymeseta.com/the-fear-of-the-unknown/ and encourage anyone who has fear to do it, especially on your own. The journey changed my life.
 
You are never alone if you are with yourself. I am having the time of my life. Half way around the planet from eveything that I know. Alone and I love it. The camino restores faith in the humsn being ☺

I 100% agree :)
