[Gocamino] mailing package to post office

[Kathy Gower]

I got this from Ivar at Santiago Today:

I have not tried this, but I assume that you could mail it "Poste Restante" 
to any post office in Spain. It will then be held there, normally for one 
month. The traveler needs to identify him/herself to collect the mailing.

I did some Googling on this, see more here:

What is Poste restante?

Other pages in Spain with Poste Restante related information:

Quote:
Post
There are efficient internal and international postal services to all 
countries. Airmail within Europe usually takes around five days. Poste 
Restante facilities are available at main post offices.

Maybe someone that has tried this in Santiago, or during a pilgrimage could 
add to this.

I hope this helps,
