About Sello

[Dennis M]

Hello - Buen Camino!

I'm just wondering if I can do this. I'll arrive just before noon in Ferrol on Sunday and the tourist office is close. I already have a passport by the time I arrive Ferrol which I requested from "american pilgrim on the camino". I'm thinking to begin my walk from Ferrol to Neda on the same day, Sunday, but I want to have my first stamp from Ferrol tourist office. So my plan is to walk to Neda and get sellos along the way but leave the first box open. The next day, Monday, go back to the tourist office and have them stamp the first box, then head back to Neda on bus, and continue my walk.

Will this work?

Thanks.

It will work, but you could just go to a bar in Ferrol and get a stamp. The date on your stamp from the Ferrol tourist office will likely be the second day of your pilgrimage.

Follow Falcon's advice. Keep it simple. Maybe see if church is open? If not get one from a bar, maybe the one by the start post?

Thanks Falcon and Al.

The Pilgrims Office accepts Neda as a starting point so don't panic - but any of the hotels or bars you pass will give you a sello. For example as you will see in the guide within a few minutes of starting you pass the Parador of Ferrol, they should be happy to stamp your Credencial.

Buen Camino
