I am starting my Camino on Monday and want to start out super light. I’d like to transfer my bag ahead to my place of rest. How do I do this? I don’t have a phone yet, just wifi while here in Logrono and email.

First one in 1977 by train. Many since then by foot. Next one ASAP.

Or Caminofacil. I'm using it on my September Frances walk..... I've used it and Correos in the past, and never had a bad experience.

Thank you. I just wasn’t sure if each Pensión or alburgue has their own preference.

Oh yes. They’d prefer you to just stay there for a couple of months

I have tried out the correos a couple of times, if you book ahead on www.elcaminoconcorreos.com or send them a mail you can send them a list of where they are to pick up and deliver, it worked well for me, I thought it was ok to use correos, if I needed a change I sent them a mail.

I just booked with Jaccotran. If you are staying in a alburgue do the separate companies show up? The woman down stairs gave me the jacotran envelope, so I just went with it.

You do have to let them know that there's a bag to pick up. The hospitalero/a can usually do this for you.
