I started walking from andorra, it took me about 6-7 weeks, but i really took my time.
I did it for religious reasons, but wach to their own, the landscape and people on the way are worth it on their own.

If you are not religious you might not enjoy it as much

Santiago de Compostella has a reasonably impressive church and a couple of quaint medieval streets but beyond that it's a pretty average & relatively unattractive city. The countryside to the NW, between Fisterra & A Coruna is interesting, some rustic farmlands as well as the treacherous coast & views from some decent sized hills, albeit with wind farms everywhere.

I did visit the church and it's one of the most impressive churches I've seen

I didn't do the walk because I was staying 2 hours away lol

yes, roncesvalles, change of pace while travelling around the world, lost weight ate delicious foods met nice people from all over the world learnt some history saw nice scenes stopped to smell the roses, anyone of any faith or nonfaith are welcome, 2 euro/km walked will more than make it luxurious. paris maybe 2 months depending on your route and walking pace. the french section would be very different to the Spanish section most people including myself are familiar with.
