I speak reasonable Spanish which was fortunate as the two older gentlemen ‘on shift’ when I picked up a credencial a few years ago spoke no English. In any case it was clear that I wasn’t there by accident and an enjoyable half-hour passed before I left with a credential, several leaflets and good wishes.Go to the church. They speak and understand English.
greetings,
i am currently staying in hostels in madrid. i would like to walk the madrid camino and pay for a camino passport but my spanish is not good. could anyone assist in how i can get a passport for this? thank you so much!
In a jam? Any sheet of paper, fold in fourths, put your name, date, and starting location. Get your starting stamp and initial. A sheet of stationary from your hotel/alburge in Madrid would be cool. What the heck, draw a pretty picture. You now have a unique memory. Get a more typical passport on your way.greetings,

If you have a smart phone you needn't buy an extra gadget, as Google Translate has this ability.You can buy a small hand-held translator that you speak English into and it playback in Spanish and vis-a-versa. Assuming you would want something like this.
Hmm, I was understanding that to get a compestella it must be an official credential stamped from the church. I could be mistaken. With the covid who knows. I commented on another and asked the question to a vetern volunteer. I'll correct my post if necessary.In a jam? Any sheet of paper, fold in fourths, put your name, date, and starting location.

Yes, it must form part of the document you present in SdC, but in the same way that you can add blank paper to extend a credencial which is full, there’s no reason why you couldn’t start by using the back of your gas bill until you get hold of an authentic credencial. It’s only the last 100km which the office is interested in after all.Hmm, I was understanding that to get a compestella it must be an official credential stamped from the church. I could be mistaken.

That map looks familiar.If you click on this link and let it open on Google maps then you will have lines that show up when you use G Maps that show you where the Camino's are and where you are in relationship with the Camino. The file is the CNIG set of maps for pilgrims. It also shows many albergues. This file is very useful but unfortunately with G Maps you can't follow it within the app, although other mapping tools allow this.
