Hi everyone, some of you might see this as not being Camino-related so I will explain. In 2015 I walked from SJPDP to SDC and during the weeks I was away my daughter took care of the home, the animals and nurturing the growing fruit & vegetables. She did the same this year when I walked from Porto to SDC. I collected various small gifts to take home for her but the ones I bought from the shop in the Hospaderia San Martin Pinario were her favourites, prompting her to ask when I would be starting my next Camino so that I might replenish her stock of the Monasterio sweets (candy). I don't know when, or even if, I will walk the Way again, so this is an appeal to anyone out there who perhaps knows how I can order some more of the sweets to be sent from Santiago to the UK. I have done all the usual searches, trying to locate the factory where they are made but without success. I am attaching a scan of the wrappers and the cellophane bag they came in to help identify the specific herb-flavoured sweets.

Should any kind person be in SDS now or shortly and be willing to buy some for me, I can transfer money via Paypal, just send a PM.

Here's hoping as the folks who stay at home and keep that show on the road are also Camino angels in my opinion. Thank you.

Thank you @mspath and @Anemone del Camino for your suggestions. I had thought of both these options then hesitated feeling it might be presumptous, but will now go ahead having been reassured by your welcome advice.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
