Most of the parcels I get are sent from the Portuguese post office, but you can send it however you want (I will store what I receive). The cost depends on size and weight... my guess, about €30,-€40,-.

My address is:

BTW, y'all, this is how Ivar supports his family. He is going into his 'season' now.

His services are not free, but they ARE reasonable, reliable and VERY secure. Besides, supporting Ivar, the Forum and Casa Ivar (the webs shop) keeps it in the 'family."

By comparison, if you were coming from Saint Jean Pied de Port and using Express Bourricot to send a suitcase to Santiago, it would cost €70 PER ITEM... just sayin...

Hope this helps.

Hi Ivar, do we pay for the storage when we pick it up? Or do we include a payment in the package.
Thanks
