Hello, fellow pilgrims!
I'm flying from Rio de Janeiro - Brazil this Saturday to start the Camino Francés from Roncesvalles on Tuesday. I am planning to send a package with a small bag containing clothes from Pamplona to Santiago's Lista de Correos (Poste Restante) on Monday, as I intend to fly to Paris after the Camino, and would like to dress normally there.
I've heard conflicting information on how long they will hold a "Paquete Peregrino" for you in Santiago. Most people say it's 30 days, some people say they have extended it to 2 months, and I sent an email to the Correos costumer service and they replied it's only 15 days! Can that be right?
Can anyone there give me positive information on this? 'Cause if I have to send it to Burgos and then again to Astorga and finally Santiago, I'd rather transfer some of my backpacks load to the "paquete" and pick it up as I need it along the way!
Thanks a lot in advance!
