In September last year, we used Manuel for both packs and people tranfer. CoVid Recovery, gastro recovery and failure of toenails to remained attached recovery.
All sectors were covered and everyone was very happy.

I was just going to ask the same question. I broke a toe in January and was misdiagnosed so it has not healed yet. I start from Granda on May 1 with a friend and don't want to let her down. I am thinking now of walking alternative stages?... Or maybe meeting her at each night's lodging?
Any...
Does Jacotrans only deliver from stage to stage (Brierly) or to places in between?
Our Camino has been set back by 12 days after we both caught the flu and then my husband, Max, got a chest infection. We are lucky to have found a nice hotel with a balcony overlooking Yamaguchi Park and next to...
My husband and I leave on April 25 for Seville. We initially were going to do the Mozarabe from Granada to Merida, then the Madrid and then the Invierno (we like being away from the crowds). I was planning to leave the Frances until we were 'old', when we would appreciate the shorter walks. Max...

TP does decompose, but it takes a while (especially scrunched up and damp). There are few things more off-putting than used...

I had an Orange Spanish SIM card that I bought for E5 in Sevilla and a plan for E3.5/week,, that gave me unlimited data and internet. The only place I did not have reception on the VdlP was a few spots in Galicia in the mountains and that was only for a short time. I used it for emailing...
Sorry for the late reply; I am trying to wean myself off the forum: too much gardening to do!
I imagine Falcon is correct: I do not have an address on the info I brought home with me. I simply walked into the Orange store in Sevilla; it is one of their standard plans. It was exactly what I...
Hi, All:
I have just finished my first Camino and loved it.
I took my iphone with me and bought a new SIM card from Orange in Sevilla for 5 or 10 euro (can't remember which). I then bought a plan called "Delfin" which gave me unlimited data for 3.5 euro a week. This gave me unlimited internet...
Hi:
I totally agree with Alan. I have just returned from the Camino; I was the only person that day who did not get lost getting into Galisteo. I simply followed all the advice posted here: walk along the concrete waterway until you see a green gate on the left with the No Passar - Peregrinos OK...
It is raining today in Seville and the pasos (parades) are not happening. It is cold too, 18C or less. Forecast is for rain until Monday. When I start walking. Lots of ladies in mantillas.
Hope all is going well Sharon.

Hi, Melanie;
Thanks for your app; I have put it on my phone; it looks extremely helpful. Do you have any idea when the next section might be ready? I leave Sevilla on April 25 - first 3 weeks with a friend then the rest on my own. I am so excited!!
Sue
Thank you, Melanie!!
It looks great. I will buy it as soon as someone comes home to help me do it (TOTAL Techno-Imbecile).
I leave Sevilla on April 25, so maybe the next section will be ready before I get to Merida?

Hi, Alan;
My friends and I are leaving Sevilla on April 25 (I think we will have to have a private Aanzac Day ceremony as we leave Sevilla).
Will there be copies available in Sydney, do you think, or should I try to get one from CSJ direct?

The shipping costs from Peregrinoteca are much cheaper than Barrabes. I received mine in Australia in about a week. Final cost for poncho (due to removal of some Spanish taxes) = 25.42E; Shipping to Australia =16.94E.

Thanks Janet,
I am planning to send my things to Pension Badalada in SDC; on top of the mailing cost it will be 15E to store a small box for 60 days. I think it will be well worth it.
