Preparing for Pilgrimage - Menorca - Camí de Cavalls

In my diary, dated Tuesday, May 22, 2018, I wrote: 

Today I flew from Schiphol to Mahon. After arriving, I took the bus to Maó, and after doing some errands and such, I set off on the long-distance hiking trail. I walked about 20 km on the first day. I rested in the fields around lunchtime because of the heat. Then I continued walking. After a dip in the (cold) sea, I looked for a place to sleep. This turned out to be a dune valley. 

The night was very humid. There's high humidity at night, and it's very hot during the day. In the morning, I had to let all my gear dry in the sun. I have to be careful of dehydration, overheating, and other physical challenges like fatigue and muscle pain. The first day I walked from Maó to Cap de Favàritx. 

Hiker Online - Hiking & Outdoors

Last month, November 11th to 13th, a friend and I stayed at Camping Wesertal in Belgium and made a number of beautiful hikes in the Ardennen. Together we decided to start a new Christian ‘Hiking & Outdoors’ initiative for men. We launched the Dutch website ‘Hiker Online’. On our website you will find short details of our trips with pictures from our hikes and links to the routes we walked. 

With this initiative for men we wanted to create a possibility to come together and get into ‘the great outdoors’. Once in a while we will plan an event to go out on a trip. Whoever feels like it and wants to come can apply and join us. For details check out our website at ‘Hiker Online‘.
