Go on mate: what are you scared of? Wrinklies squandering their children’s inheritance and laughing at your youth? Middle aged cushties blagging the better restaurant seats and drinking all the good stuff? Ex-students with nothing to do all summer and to loved-up to notice you?Hello everyone!
I am planning to begin the Primitivo in late August (29th) and am wondering if it’s a popular trek for other young hiking enthusiasts. I am a solo 22 year old and, while I love adventure, am worried I won’t find others to share the experience with
Haha I was thinking of putting something in brackets so as not to offend the older folk. l guess part of me wanted a gentle reminder that age is just a number. Cheers for the prompt reply; so cool that there is such a strong support base for the CaminoAnd older people don't count?
(That's not entirely serious, but some. You might be surprised that people the age of your parents or grandparents can actually be very good company - and they may even be as fit as you are, too...)
And the short answer to your question is yes.
Buen camino, @JimCamino !Cheers for the prompt reply; so cool that there is such a strong support base for the Camino
Hmm, that final sentence was unnecessary. Jim Camino your gracious reply to the earlier ribbing on this thread reassures me that you will meet all sorts of people who will be delighted by your company. Buen Camino - it is a beautiful way.Walked with many youngsters while on Camino and here in the Uk , mostly they are welcome to join in as long as they can keep up with the pace.
You'll meet all sorts and find common ground with them all. Try and stop staring at your screen and you'll meet loads of nice peeps
Yeah, totally. As though none of us is doing that right now?Hmm, that final sentence was unnecessary.

We are NOT "older folk." We are the much more experienced cadre.

I have been on 4 different caminos in the past 10 years. I am now 65 and what stood out for me on my experiences were all the young people we met who became really good friends. They were fantastic. Mostly Europeans. Don't know if it's cultural to be more inclusive of different age groups? Not knowing your culture.Hello everyone!
