- Time of past OR future Camino
- Oct/Nov 2022_Mozarabe from Almeria
I'm volunteeribg as hospitalera at the moment (donativo Albergue 'Villa de Grado ) on the Primitivo route.
I've seen a fair number of pilgrims arrive with 'free' credentials received from turismo in Oviedo or Grado.
As Grado can be day 1 for many starting in Oviedo we do have a supply of official credentials if they need one at a cost (we collect 3 euros for each).
There is also a supply of free credencials.
We explain the difference but many don't care and some only want it for a week or so and not going to claim a compostela.
I am concerned though at what may happen to those arriving at the pilgrim office to claim a compostela with the unofficial version.
Would someone on the forum please advise.
