Purpose of this Blog

 The purpose of this Blog is to help Camino First-Timers who want to join mw on the Camino Primitive in the fall of 2027. I have done the Camino Frances starting in St. Jean Pied-de-Port and the Portuguese Coastal route starting in Lisbon. I'll use those experiences and YouTube videos and veterans of the Primitive to supply tips to my co-pilgrims and potential co-pilgrims. The tips will include preventing blisters, how to use trekking poles, what to bring/pack, avoiding mistakes and more.... One of my foot blisters on the Frances Route My wife, sister, and I enter Santiago (the sign is famous) To my readers, there are excellent comparisons of the popular routes on YouTube. Just search for "Which Camino should I do?" These two videos are good: one , two . What should you bring? I'll provide my list in a later post but there are good YouTubes on this, too. Here's one. Training ?
