It is worth doing some before going. As for walking on your own, well many people do and lots of women. There are very few reports of any problems and I would imagine that there are fewer problems there than living in any city in Ireland. It is quite safe.

I've read your site cover to cover it's fab, my husband is from Donegal and we have spent alot of time there. Anyway I digress, I have 2 concerns, Firstly I'm not mad into exercise and everyone thinks it hilarious that I'm doing this, since people rarely see me out of stillettos. WIll I be able to do it, I don't want to start it and end up coming home early I would never live it down. The other thing is saftey. I'm doing it on my own and the thought of several weeks walking the streets in some foreign clime has my family and me a biy -rather nervous. am I being a wimp or should I be packing pepper spray, don't them finding my remains in a ruck sack.

If you go to my blog, inspirationpilgrimage.blogspot.com, you will find a link that will take you to ERD and instructions on how to donate. This last 272-mile segment will complete three of our walking from Le Puy, France-Santiago, 1570kms.
