<DIV><FONT face="Tempus Sans ITC" color=#0000ff>Hi Rachel,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Tempus Sans ITC" color=#0000ff> I walked the Camino
in Sept-October of 2002....started in St. Jean Pied-de-Port, walked to Santiago
and then Finisterre, and then back to SJPP. I'm a NOLS wilderness medicine
instructor, you might think this will be a wilderness hike. It's not a
wilderness experience, though you will be walking everyday and passing through
wonderful rural countryside. There are villages every 5-10 kilometers or
so, with a few passages of 10-25 km where there are no villages or towns.
You will find much information from the various guidebooks available (I found
the book published by the Confraternity of St. James in London to be
invaluable. Look them up on the web for purchasing the book if you are
interested. Also, a good book to read prior to going is "Pilgrim Stories"
by Nancy Frey. </FONT></DIV>

everybody! my name is rachel keeton and my sister caitlin and i will
be hiking the camino this may and june. we're both college students
in the u.s. and i had some experience with wilderness trekking last summer
when i did a 28-day outward bound course in the mountains of north
carolina. we're both incredibly stoked about this experience, but
we're looking for someone we can correspond with regularly about the
details of this adventure. if you've walked the camino before, or if
you're planning on walking this summer please email me so we can get in
touch. thanks so much!!! -rachel keeton<BR></BLOCKQUOTE>
