Vir my kinders- mag ons altyd met eer lewe, vol moed om die toekoms aan te pak en te vorm. Mag ons altyd lojaal wees in dit wat ons in glo. Mag ons lewens van die Waarheid getuig, en mag ons vrygewig wees teenoor almal wat minder as ons het.
Hi Ewald! Ek beplan om in Junie volgende jaar die Camino vir die eerste keer te stap. Ek het sommer al 202 dae gelede begin blog daaroor - ek kan nie wag om te begin stap nie!
ReplyDeleteEk is so bly ek het jou blog nou ontdek, sal beslis jou stap volg - hoop jy gaan dit 'update' soos jy stap?
Ek wil graag by jou hoor - het jy daaraan gedink om 'n tentjie saam te neem vir in geval die albergues vol is? Ek gaan in die besige tyd stap, so dalk is dit nie iets wat vir jou 'n probleem gaan wees nie. Hoor graag of jy navorsing daaroor gedoen het.
'Buen Camino' - soos hulle se!
Groete

Hi Emilene- ek hoop die internetfasiliteite is goed genoeg om te kan blog, dit klink baie rural daar. Ek sal ten minste op facebook probeer update waar ek is.
ReplyDeleteEk gaan voor die besigste tyd, so nee vir die tent, ek probeer onder 10 kg inkom met die rugsak, wat 'n groot challenge vir my is. Ek pak altyd te veel goed in, en my laaste Julie Drakensberg stap was ek 25 kg gelaai- bietjie erg! Ek sal eerder rough gaan en in 'n boer se skuur gaan wegkruip as om 'n tent saam te dra!
Gelukkig is daar baie goeie materiaal oor die Camino beskikbaar- die Confraternity se gidse is 'n baie goeie wegspringplek. Sterkte vir jou voorbereidings- ek wens ek kon jou Kilimanjaro ervaring êrens doen.
