- Time of past OR future Camino
- Enjoying the camino since 2009
Hi peregrinas and peregrinos, I am very soon off on my honeymoon camino! Yes, soon means middle of March, so temps will be unpredictable. We start in Astorga, walk to Santiago, then go to Porto and fly down to the Algarve for a week of beach and vinho verde. So yes, I have to layer to cope with cold weather and also have suitable clothes for sitting in the sun by the beach bar and yes, vanity is an aspect here. So is weight and volume as we are traveling hand luggage only! The list is FSO, from skin out, meaning I am wearing some of it at any and all times.
My combination camino/beach holiday wardrobe is as follows:
1 Craghoppers Long Kiwi Pro trousers 380 g
1 Craghoppers Capri Kiwi Pro trousers 260 g
1 Icebreaker longjohns 135 g
1 Merino vest/strappy top 100 g
2 Icebreaker short sleeve tops 270 g
1 Icebreaker long sleeve top 215 g
1 Lightweight fleece jacket 275 g
1 Icebreaker very light racerback dress 135 g
1 Merino cardigan 195 g
1 Pertex windproof jacket 200 g
1 Altus lightweight Atmospheric poncho 225 g
1 pair Teva Terra Fi Lite for spares/beach wear 440 g
1 pair Salomon non goretex trainer type shoes 770 g
Buff, merino buff, softshell hat, fleece gloves, socks and underwear
Apart from this there is of course the medikit and toiletries which I've pretty much got under control, silk bags, Sea to Summit silnylon packable daybags, and money and valuables in a small cross body bag.
I have very little time to pack/repack the day before we go, I need to have everything ready a week in advance because of a works trip, so if I need to get or change anything I need to know as soon as possible. I think I have got it right - or am I missing something? Any comments very much appreciated.
