I would like to nominate zephyrbc for BoW. They have been bloggers since 2007, but they have only just come to my attention (because Travel Camel followed them). I have enjoyed reading their blogs, which have a very relaxed about them. Reply to this

I'll second the nomination for zephyrbc zephyrbc, especially since they wrote of South America. So funny that Ren found their travel relaxing.; I found them a whirlwind with a lot of flights and early mornings, but I still enjoyed them. Looking forward their next voyage. Reply to this

Tara I seem to have left out two key words in my sentence - 'writing style'. I wasn't referring to their style of travel; it was the way they wrote that I found 'relaxed' 😊 Reply to this

This could be an interesting one to follow; sherrys

Inspired by "The Way"....

"I am walking from St Jean Pied-de-Port, France to Compostela de Santiago, Spain starting on the 24th of September 2014. " Reply to this

In response to: Msg #184977
Thanks, Jo, I just signed up to follow sherrys, especially since I've stayed and loved all the places they'll be visiting though it appears they'll be doing it all at a pretty good clip.

I was wondering about getting a dedicated Camino de Santiago de Compostela location in Spain. It really covers so many provinces that unless one is a daily blogger, which rather defeats the pilgrimage purpose, one wouldn't know where to put the weekly, monthly or whole trip blog.

It would also help readers/potential walkers from having to go to each province, sifting through unrelated blogs, to get Camino info and tips. I think this would be really helpful since so many people are walking the Camino these days. Thanks. Reply to this

If Tara hasn't given sherrys a second, I'll do so. Reply to this

In response to: Msg #184977 I'm currently Following not only sherrys, but also Skyeview5, who has just started their walk on the Camino, and DeadFred, who is departing about the same time as sherrys. I've put them in touch with each other just in case they want to make the connection along the Way.

I've previously suggested being able to sort bloggers by self identifying groups, and those walking the Camino would be an example of such a group. In the meantime, I just do a search for Camino de Santiago and I get a pretty good list of TBers. I was going to nominate DeadFred once he got started about Sep 26. But I'll do so now. I would nominate Skyeview5 too, but they haven't posted any pictures yet.

I'm hoping to walk the Way in two years, so their experiences with the weather at this time of year is of particular interest in planning.

You're right, Shane, I forgot the nominating part, so I'll third the Sherrys. They seem to post a bit, so it would be great to have someone on the front page, posting their Camino, and inspiring others to walk.

And thanks for the tips, Bob, I'll check out your recommendations. Must admit, I'm sad my best photos from my Camino were lost in the French mail and the others are in my storage locker. My writing disappeared long ago--I'll relive it through these pilgrims. Reply to this
