I want to shorten the 34k stage going from A Gudina to Laza, and planned to stay in Campobecerros, about...
I just accept that I will have to fly a really long distance to get there. I do reuse items, clothes, sleeping bag, pack etc - but I do need new shoes. Apart from shoes my gear lasts me a long time. I am taking stuff on my next one, that I bought...
