Just completed my first Camino and wanted a tattoo to celebrate! I highly recommend Calipso Tattoo and Piercing Coruna. Julia was awesome and helped both my aunt and I create what worked for us. It was my aunts first tattoo!

Any recommendations for a good, clean parlor in Santiago that does walk ins? Preferably also one with an artist/artists that speak English, and/or...
we have had some wonderful threads on tattoo souvenirs of the Camino, and some looking for a tattoo in Santiago.
