Hola, 

Ive suddenly found myself approaching 60. How did that happen?

I’ve been intrigued by the Camino de Santigo- an ancient pilgrimage route from St Jean Pied de Port in South west France 500 miles westward to Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain. 

I decided to go for it and have been planning (talking about it) since July last year. 

I get to St Jean on 19th May 2015 and start walking the next day. 

That leaves why (I’ve to work that out) and how (got to work that out too).

Wish me luck (or bueno camino)

NB The photo above isn’t mine. It”s by talented young NY photographer

Please click the link and go visit his site and see his other camino photos (also in May2015 National Geographic Magazine)

I’ll replace it when I get out on the Camino myself
