LIVE from the Camino Need help sending some items "backwards"!

Hi peregrin@s!

Why oh why do I always hit "save" before I've even written anything?

I'm near León, walking towards the Pyrenees. It's very likely that I'll take the Camino from Mansilla to Cistierna and do the Olvidado in reverse, which means that I'll be seeing you guys who are on it right now.

Here's the thing. I'm packing too much. I've packed equipment for what I wanted to do - being outdoors and bushcrafting - but not for true light hiking or a Camino experience. As it turns out, it's better to either hike OR bushcraft but not both.

Of course, if I were going to Santiago, there'd be wonderful people there, and Casa Ivar as I discovered recently. But if I'm going to SJDP and Irún (I'm going through Irún to get back to SJPDP), I'm thinking there is no central location to mail it to.

There is another issue, which is I'm packing a small hatchet and I cannot send it across borders. Ideally I'd send it somewhere to a friendly peregrin@, if anyone is willing to hang on to it. Hatchets (I know this) are technically not on Correos' "favourites" list either.

So... if anyone has some idea or has a good solution, I'd be very happy...

Saludos,
Gwaihir
