April/May 2019 from Durrës
Hello, I am planning on walking the via egnatia from Durres to Thessalonika in April/May 2019 and would enjoy the company of another walker/walkers at any stage of the journey. This will be my first walk of more than a week, so it is a little daunting!I am a 57 year old retired ancient history teacher from Australia who has travelled and walked extensively. Having lived in Egypt for three years during the post revolutionary period, I think I am pretty resourceful and resilient traveller, who has a lot of curiosity.

Mirake - Bitola, from 2nd week of August 2017
Hi, I'm Erika from Germany and I would like to do a part of VE in August, if it's not to hot.
I have a flight to Tirana on August 8th and my idea is to start VE in the region of Mirake, going to Bitola, Northern Macedonia. I don't want to carry too much stuff, so I'll be travelling without tent, hoping to find rooms in private houses or hotels. As I have been travelling to Albania several times, I speak a bit of Albanian. I'm used to travel on my own, but if somebody would like to join me on my trip or if you can give me some advice or tell me your experiences, I'll be glad. (I did 2 parts around Elbasan in January and I have a GPS with VE.). This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Departing from Durrës, beginning of April, 2017
My Fellow Adventurers - masculini / feminae
April 2nd - July 2nd, 2017; Dyrrachium to Constantinople
Do you want to join me for this walk in the ruins? We could hike a bit together, arrange to meet up for a chat along the way, be somewhere at the same time or some such thing.
A few years ago I enjoyed the 800 km Pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela in Spain - I loved the simplicity, the history, the freedom, the outdoors, nature in all its aspects and the atmospherics. Not to mention the food & drink. I know we will find the same experience here.
I am a 67 year old male from Canada; I have a love of Mother Nature, enjoy being far from the Madding crowd, have a mythological/spiritual bent, an interest in archaeology and still enjoy the local wines!
I will land in Tirana April 2nd, 2017 and will be in Greece & the Balkans until the end of July. Hope to hear from you. Contact: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
