WORK IS DONE!!!

I have exactly 12 hours before I take off on my flight. I've finished packing and have managed to get myself down to a bare minimum of 11kg (24 lbs)


Fleece pants, Booties, 2 pairs of Umbros, 2 paris of socks, 2 running shirts, pjs, 2 pairs underwear, rain pants, rain jacket, 2 walking sticks, 2 L camelback, Vitamins, Toiletries, Camera and batterie, silk sleeping bag liner, map, pilgrim passport, hiking boots, phone, shower slippers, blister kit, duct tape, swiss army knife, head lamp, camino book, japanese neck massager, back pack safety chain... and the chain that my student/teachers gave to me as a thank-you yesterday.

... and one camino badge to look legit on the trail:)

I don't think I've ever done a long hike with so little (keeping in mind that my camelback is empty and that I'm not carrying any food on me at the moment). But then again, I don't think I've ever done such a long hike. From start to finish the hike is over 700 km. With a little luck, I'll be done in 30 days or so...

I am bringing a few extra things along which I will send to myself at santiago de compostela.

... First stop... Madrid:)
