Credential/stamp questions
The end of my camino is finally in sight. I'll be arriving in Ourense tomorrow. I have heard people say they will be getting 2 stamps a day in their credencial during the last 100 km. Is this really necessary? Once I arrive in Santiago, do I need to get a stamp before going to the...- ratyoke

Can't receive a package from abroad as a tourist?
About a week before I arrived in Salamanca I asked my mom in the US to send a few things I couldn't find in Spain to the hotel I would be staying at.

Order a passport or get it in Spain?
I read that some people get their pilgrim's passport when they arrive in Spain, and I also see that it can be ordered and sent to your home before you leave. Are they both the exact same passport? Is there any reason to do it one way rather than the other? I'll be starting my camino in...- ratyoke
