Hey everyone,
Really grateful for some advice.
I recently completed my Camino Frances, and will now walk on Finisterre, then Muxia from tomorrow.
Like many others, I walked my Camino in memory of a deceased relative, in this case my mother who passed away last August. I was sure to ask about my Compostela being noted to reflect this intention. However, there was some confusion in the Pilgrims Office within Santiago, and whilst I eventually got my Compostela noted, it was done so in pen, once printed.
I am very grateful for this but, as I’m likely to frame the certificate, I wonder if the addition of my mum’s name should have been printed. I just want everything to be perfect and, as I have the opportunity to revisit the pilgrims office next week, can request a replacement.
Additionally, there was no option to have my mum‘s name added to the more detailed certificate, noting the start point and distance travelled. Is this right?
Thanks in advance
