I've been reading up on the route options for a while now, and have finally decided to go for the Via de la Plata next summer...yes, in July, and yes, I'm probably insane to do that! My problem is that the amount of money I'll have for the journey by next year will be limited to a maximum of about 500 British pounds (700 euros) - I'm a student and I only have a part-time job. All the write-ups and guides that I've read say that an average of about 1000 euros is needed for the VdlP. There is no way I will have that kind of money by next summer. Can anybody say, from their own or second-hand experience, whether it would be possible to complete the VdlP on my budget? I am in very good shape, and would be aiming to complete at least 30km a day, although I realise that summer temperatures may restrict me from doing so. So if anyone has any advice as to how I could keep costs to a minimum, I would be very grateful to hear from you.
Thanks in advance,
Tom.
