3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Go hiking in the Helderberg reserve, Silvermine and Noordhoek Peak.
On each hike, take a pebble with you that represents mental baggage.
Rub all your cares into the pebble as you hike.
When you get to the cave - or the lookout - leave the pebble there.
This will prepare you for the camino!
