Your Story or Advice for Others
General CommentsA fantastic journey. Amazing to be able to walk 1000kms and most of it in the bush/dunes etc.
Your Best Equipment
Silk/cotton sleeping bag liner. No stinky sleeping bag, added warmth at night, gave a cooler option when it was warmer. Versatile and comfortable. Even used it as a mobile changeroom once or twice.
Your Worst Equipment
Nothing springs to mind. Some stuff not used but it was there if I did needed it.
Advice for Others
Get out there, do it and enjoy doing it. Hike your own hike. Listen to advice where it's given but in the end make your own decisions. Only you know what you want from your journey.
