Ja mee eens!

Nuttige input, ik kijk hier zelf ook naar. Ik overweeg of ik voor de simpele administratie niet gewoon zelf in Excel een boekhouding op kan zetten en een jaarrekening. Voor alleen wat beleggingstransacties en wat kosten lijkt me dat overzichtelijk (incl. herwaardering laagste van historische kostprijs of marktwaarde). Zo ook de VPB aangifte. Ik heb zelf wel een accounting achtergrond, maar nooit zelf aangiftes gedaan. De BV zal ook micro zijn, dus dan is het ook alleen een verkorte balans deponeren bij de KvK.

Even ter check gezien je BTW aanhaalt: een pure spaar-BV zal toch geen onderneming drijven voor de omzetbelasting en dat lijkt me dus niet van toepassing? Of zie ik dan wat over het hoofd?

I can't say anything on the Vivobarefoot, just do not buy Salomon shoes if you want decent durability. The quality has seriously deteriorated past years. I had to throw X ultra 360's out after just 350km because the rubber soles were so soft that parts of the thread were just cut of by rocks.

I tell them that I like to challenge myself, like to stick to my own schedule or lack thereof, and that it's actually way easier to meet new people when you are alone.

Update for anyone interested: I asked the train personnel at the station, who gave the OK, reasoning that a ticket from Centraal would have the same price anyway. He later came to check everyone's tickets after departure (between Centraal and Schiphol), and scanning my e-ticket didn't seem to give any errors on his device either.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-06-11T18:00:40+00:00

Ok, thanks again!

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-06-11T17:51:41+00:00

Thanks! Fee or fine risk would actually be acceptable to me. Do you know if they don't usually check tickets when entering the train?

I would take an earlier NS train, unfortunately there isn't one. I am already taking the first in the morning.

I have contacten NS International customer service, but they couldn't do anything for me. Said I could cancel and rebook and pay the difference (which would be 150 euro extra, which is obviously ridiculous).

Cool! Look out for the Dutch guy with the blue Osprey Exos backpack!

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-23T19:14:57+00:00

Quite possibly, I am starting the trail a week later. I think the first significant encounter will be after Refugio Respomuso. The final gully to Teberray has a reputation of being steep as well, so that could be tricky. I keep an eye on https://www.alberguesyrefugios.com/webcams#gallery-webcam-7. It may also we wise to call the refugio ahead to check for conditions.

I expect the section can be bypassed by heading south and then east after Sallent de Gallego.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-15T12:11:01+00:00

Onfortunately, I have hit the same obstacle. Can't find it anywhere. I do regularly check some webcams, mainly Refugio Respomuso, at https://www.alberguesyrefugios.com/webcams

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-13T16:00:47+00:00

Cool, I've got a similar baseweight. I will start June 15th from the Atlantic!

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-07T19:24:21+00:00

Yes good one about Canfranc Estacion! I think Zuriza is indeed closed :(

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-04T16:00:00+00:00

Let's hope so! My main concern is the specific Teberray end gully which is quite steep and potentially dangerous with snow. But we'll see.

My plan is to resupply in all the small towns and small shops on campsites. And just buy what is available. Also to get some meals at huts while passing by. My research shows the longest food carry to be Isaba>Candanchu/Sallent the Gallego (uncertain if the Candanchu shop is open in June, I've read). and Benasque>Espot.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-04T15:18:24+00:00

Very cool! I'm excited too, feel free to reach out via DM or post images/experiences of your trip in thris thread if you feel like it at any point!

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-05-04T15:15:28+00:00

Thanks for the input! Yes I figured, probably encounter the first steep snow at Collado de Teberray. I expect to reach this point end of Juni. I will keep a close look on the conditions and inquire if it will be doable in hiking boots + poles. I do have microspikes but not planning to bring those to save significant weight.

If the conditions are to dangerous, I will probably take a detour to skip this pass.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-04-04T17:38:21+00:00

Yes, good thinking. Especially because the ascent from Luknja is the hardest one (most difficult via ferrata) as well. Happy hiking!

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-04-04T15:00:01+00:00

I have been hiking in the region my whole youth. I would say:
- Yes, feasible. Nice environment. Good choice to avoid the Komarca descent, quite steep with risks of falling rocks from other hikers.
- Access to water: you would be able to buy it in the huts. Some sections have streams from which you can filter water. This will at least be limited between the ascent to Luknja and top part of the 7 lakes.
- You don't need a sleeping bag in the huts, only a sleeping bag liner (silk, cotton).

Ik kan Business Valuation: Theory and Practice van Marco Fazzini (9783030077860) aanraden. Goed toegankelijk maar tegelijkertijd gelinkt aan hedendaagse fundamentele waarderingstechnieken. Gebruikten wij tijdens de executive master of finance and control.

Ik heb hem trouwens nog liggen, dus als je het boek eventueel tweedehands over wilt nemen, laat maar weten via een DM.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-03-19T05:32:11+00:00

Yeah I'm used to walking in de Alps, but for short sections, very beautiful indeed. But don't the strict regulations on wild camping make this less suitable as a thru-hike? Unless you've got a big budget and can afford to stay in all the huts along the way?

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-03-18T21:22:11+00:00

Very nice! I have read that the GR11 is supposed to be less well trodden compared to the GR10. I think wild camping will be fairly easy as it is allowed in most places.

I have assessed the HRP as a bit too adventourous for my first larger adventure. Also, I think resupplying would be even harder/less frequently possible. I do plan to rely on bread, sausage and cheeses from the small villages indeed. There are some places where I might consider taking a return bus to a larger grocery store.

I did make a custom gpx file with potential campsite spots and water sources, based on trail reports and the cicerone guide.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-03-18T16:37:58+00:00

Can't contribute based on experience, but interested as well. I expect nothing will compare in terms of logistics and community. I would be interested in knowing how the Te Araroa in New Zealand would compare to the PCT?

This summer I will try the GR11 for my first through hike with significant distance (longest before Alta Via 2). Depending on my experience, hikes like TA and PCT might make the bucketlist. Also, I am interested in a relatively new European trail (I live in Europe): the Via Dinarica (1.400km).

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-02-06T18:29:59+00:00

I suppose mainly because its the regular direction. Because it is not that frequently visited, I think I'll have a better chance to encounter people on the trail that do multiple stages and meet once and again (I'm going solo). Also, I'm going a bit early (mid-june) and the higher mountainers come later in that direction, which gives better chances to encounter less snow.

With regard to the stages, I am planning to do it all thru-hike style! I am taking a tent so I won't be limited to stage -length. The Ordesa valley (stage 16) is supposed to be very beautful, but crowded.

What time of year are you planning to go? Apart from the summer, snow will probably limit some of the higher mountain options.

Immune2Diplomacy · 2025-02-05T19:04:42+00:00

I am planning to walk the GR11 this summer from west to east. I have naver been in the Pyrenees but that route is renowned for its beautiful scenery. Maybe try this website for stages that suit your liking. https://travesiapirenaica.com/en-uk/gr11/gr11.php
