Portuguese 133K April '16 ~ My First!
I'm Ruthie and I'm heading to walk my first Camino from Oia to Santiago - 133K with 6 ladies from Ireland. We are doing it for Focus Ireland, its a charity which helps the homeless. I have raised nearly 4000.oo euro this month and so glad I can do it for me and for others!
I've been reading and hovering of late so decided to join in the fun here. Thanks for all the invaluable support so far.
The only thing that looks a bit off is the rain!! It's been pretty bad lately, even though we are well used to rain here in Wicklow Ireland!!
I really hope to return and do more of the Camino, even thinking I may continue for another week if the going's good!!
Buen Camino all xxx
 
Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
Good luck ladies. We'll be walking in some of your footsteps later in the year. Bom Camino! Or should I say Bueno Camino, as you're walking in Spain! Hope it all goes well.
 
Buen camino RuthieS! I will be starting from Porto two days later. good luck with the fund-raising.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
