21 certificates you can get on the Camino

Most of us use gronze for its up to date information on routes, stages, accommodations, etc, but they also routinely publish write-ups about a variety of topics.

Today, I ran across one that lists the 21 certificates you can get on the Camino along with two that you can’t get. It’s done in fun, I think, but may be interesting for those who love to get certificates! It includes the Olvidada, the Salvadorana, and lots more!


One certificate that you can no longer get is the one that Zapatones used to hand out freely in Obradoiro (old-timers will remember the bearded guy who walked around in full pilgrim regalia and who died in 2016).

The other you can’t get is the Compostelana. 😂

That’s really interesting.

I’m in no great rush to qualify for a compostela ‘in memoriam’, and despite my username on here I can’t personally qualify for una perregrina, although Henry the (actual) dog does have a compostela ‘in vicarie pro’
 
La mayoría de nosotros utilizamos gronze para obtener información actualizada sobre rutas, etapas, alojamiento, etc., pero también publican habitualmente artículos sobre una variedad de temas.

Hoy me encontré con uno que enumera los 21 certificados que puedes obtener en el Camino junto con dos que no puedes obtener. Creo que se hace de forma divertida, ¡pero puede ser interesante para aquellos a quienes les encanta obtener certificados! ¡Incluye la Olvidada, la Salvadoreña y mucho más!

Un certificado que ya no se puede conseguir es el que Zapatones repartía gratuitamente en el Obradoiro (los viejos recordarán al barbudo que paseaba con toda su vestimenta de peregrino y que murió en 2016).

La otra que no podrás conseguir es la Compostelana. 😂

Thank you very much, Laurie ;-)

Wonderful. Thank you for posting this.
