After I thru hiked Croatia on Croatian Long Distance Trail long months of hard work hit me in the face. I wrote handbook, and mobile app is being done as I write. Handbook is essential so hikers can gain courage for hiking 1400 miles of trail. And here it is! It is waiting to be printed in Croatian. Printing costs. Basically I need 2200 $ and probably price will go up due to color photos being added. After that I will pay translator to do the job and translate it to English which is around 500 $. In this moment I am collecting donations.
So, this is handbook. Don’t expect stories from my adventure in this book. This time I will skip story telling because whole experience needs to age. There were lots of bad thing happening while hiking. Croatia is nice little country, but when you want to do something new don’t expect only support. People get mean and nasty sometimes. So, some bad people were around while I was hiking, but awesome people were here as well. And those good people are the ones I need to write about so first I need to make some time distance so bad stuff washes away. Then I can deliver pure and positive story. So, instead of 2 books, now I have only one – handbook
I put all of my hiking knowledge into this handbook so this book is not only for CLDT thru hikers. It is for everyone who wishes to hike El Camino, PCT, AT, Via Dinarica, Te Aroroa or some other hiking route.
In second part of the handbook you can find town, village and mountain hut lists on CLDT. These are data for CLDT thru hikers and they will appreciate this a lot.
So, if you think this is something you want to support please let me know. Send me an e-mail: horvatinjos@gmail.com and we will find a way to make your wish to help me alive.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart! 🙂
