Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
John Brierley's book has Porto >> Santiago in 9 stages, ranging from 18 to 33 km. Rounding out the stages, it's about 225 km Porto > Santiago (via ruta central). Sounds more than do-able with your time line, even if you want to take it slower.
 
I want to do the Porto - Santiago with a 9 yr old. Is it possible in 10 days? He's actually the one who wants yo do it with me.
 
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,-
Depends on the child, but with the day-after-day distances, I'd think it would really be wearing on and difficult for most nine year olds. But you know your own son . . .
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
