Hi all.
When I reach the Santiage Cathedral and obtain my Compostela document, is there somplace I can buy a small cardboard tube to place it in?, or should I take a tube with me?, how big is it? I am assuming it is about an A4 size. My reasons for wanting to protect it is because I want to have it framed when I return home.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
It will come with a tube - a great service - there is also an opportunity to make a donation to help with costs

Buen Camino
 
If the pilgrim office has run out of tubes [as sometimes happens] tubes are readily available in the souvenir shops scattered around Compostela for around 2 euro. The pilgrim office asks for 1 euro for each "tubo". And yes, the compostela is around A4 size.

Marvellous, thanks very much. At least that is one thing less to carry with me to Santiago.
