If the winter has been "rather mild" so far, I am taking advantage of a cold and rainy period to take a break around Bosnia (hatched countries) to do some
Not all of these countries can be crossed on foot in their entirety.
The rest of the trips will be by public transport, taxi or hitchhiking .
I put aside the plane, too polluting and contrary to my donation collection.

THE
ACCOMMODATION
Although this term is relatively catchy, I don't really have a plan B.
But rather a plan B, C, D, E,...
I am in no way wedded to my itinerary and even if it remains the final objective, I reserve the right to spend my 8 months in Portugal if I like it or if I am forced to.
Regardless of the plan, I am expected to continue the walk to collect donations.
After a first part along the coast of Portugal and Spain, I embark for Sardinia and then Sicily. I end the year 2024 in Puglia in Italy.
I then join the city of Patras in Greece to finally reach the Balkans after a tour of the Peloponnese.
I resume my journey at the end of February, crossing central Europe to the Baltic countries.
Here awaits me my final destination in Estonia, Tallinn.
My two preferred means of accommodation will be
bivouac/camping or ideally with locals.
If neither is possible, I will stay in a hostel or hotel.

PLAN B
Following a complicated episode and in a moment of doubts and questions, the main objective for me is to set out to discover what I do not know.
By discovery I mean: discovery of the other, of their culture and of their country in a more general way.
The progress of this project is structured around
two major themes closely linked to each other.
1.
A first environmental theme.
Preserving our environment is of course a crucial issue for us and in particular for my generation which must understand and then react appropriately to the problem.
The ecological aspect is found in an approach of hiking, proximity to nature and of course in the collection of donations.
2.
The social aspect is also at the heart of the project.
In this same ecological context and in a world in which equality and cooperation sometimes have difficulty finding their place; it is important to share, help each other and open up to others when our ideas and our differences separate us.
THE
GOALS
My "Solidarity Trails" project therefore aims to inform and demonstrate this social and ecological link through
completion of 2 actions:
Production of a film at the end of these 8 months of travel, in order to share my experience.
Organization of a charity walk to collect donations for the benefit of the association "Les Amis de la Terre France".
Mon projet "Sentiers solidaires" a donc pour but d'informer et de démontrer ce lien social et écologique par la
