Time of past OR future Camino
2018
Hi, will be starting my first ever "Baby Camino" from A Guarda the 20th of May 2018. Probably a stupid question, but where in A Guarda do I get a cello? And does it matter whether you get it in the evening before or the next morning?
Staying at Monumento Convento de San Benito.
Thanks in advance
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
You can get a Sello from the Convento, from a nearby bar, anywhere almost. And get two per day from somewhere and from where you stay until you get to Santiago.
One of my most treasured credencials bears not a Sello but a signature and a date - Miguel, queserio, Tresviso 19 Julio, another bears the smudged stamp from the Club Roque in Malaga, another the Estacion Ferrocarril in Ferrol. They all count.
 
We got our stamp in a hotel in A Guarda but there is an albergue too.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

There is a tourist office where you exit the ferry from Portugal. You can get a sello there. Also in your hotel. Stayed there last June, great place, very historical.
 
And remember that the double L makes a Y sound in Spanish. So ask for a "say-o" not a "sel-o".
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
