A Little Bit about me

A little bit about me

I planned to do part of the Camino in Northern Spain with a good friend of mine, only to realise before the walk that I was quite unfit and unprepared for a week of daily walks of approx. 20 kms per day, so something had to change and I needed to break in my new walking shoes in advance of my big walk.

I began a series of short daily walks in and around my locality.  It was a couple of kms per day, then this increased to 5 or 6 and before I knew it I was walking 8 or 9 kms easily. Slowly I realised that as I walked I stretched both body and mind.

I had often remarked to family and friends how fortunate we are to live in Dublin, a capital city yet there are a host of amenities on our doorstep, the sea, rivers mountains and lakes and it doesn’t cost a fortune to avail of them.

I will  post images and describe my experiences Of my walks at both home and abroad.
