<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello everyone,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I guess it's about time I introduce myself,
since I was asked to do so when I signed up to this list. My name is Sofia and
I'm planning to walk el Camino in June. I can't remember when I first
decided that I want to go, but I remember a stand-in teacher in
school (Spanish class) who was talking about the mass in Santiago de Compostela,
and his very funny way of illustrating how the incence was swinging through
the church... Maybe that was when it started. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now, years later, it seems like I might finally get
the chance to go. My pilgrimage will be a part of the research before
writing an university essay in </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anthropology.
I haven't decided exactly what the subject will be yet, but maybe I'll
get back to you when I have. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For now I'll just be learning from your posts, but
I think I'll have lots of questions about packing and so in a few
months...</FONT></DIV>
