Buenos días... Estimo salir el 12 de Mayo de León. Alguna recomendación especial que no debería pasar por alto en esa ruta?
De igual forma, hay algún alguna facilidad para trasladar el resto de mi equipaje desde Madrid a Santiago? Dónde puedo conseguir en León la credencial antes de arrancar mi camino? Gracias y saludos desde Venezuela
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Helping a bit; translation by Google:

Good morning ... I estimate out on 12 May León. Any special recommendation should not overlook that route?
Similarly, there are some some facility to move the rest of my luggage from Madrid to Santiago? Where I can get the credential León before starting my way? Thanks and greetings from Venezuela
 
Pacha-- usualmente el mes de Mayo tiene su cantidad de lluvia asi que asegurate que tienes un buen poncho y ropa que la puedes secar en secadora. Las botas/zapatos que sea altos al tobillo para que se protejan del lodo. Llevate unas sandalias para que las uses cuando no estes caminando. El equipaje de Madrid a Santiago lo puedes mandar por correo en una caja que puedes adquirir en cualquier correo de Madrid y mandarlo a Santiago. Hay dos opciones; lo puedes mandar a cargo del correo postal de Santiago donde escribes una nota que eres Peregrina y que te lo guarden. Lo maximo que lo guardan son 2 semanas de gratis. La otra opcion is mandarsela al encargado de este foro, Ivar (http://www.caminodesantiago.me/luggage-storage-in-santiago-de-compostela/) a la direccion:

Ivar tiene un pago minimo y el te guarda tu paquete sin problema por max de 2 meses. Mucha gente usan los servicios de Ivar.

La ruta desde Leon es linda; que lo disfrutes. En Leon la Catedral tiene credenciales. Al frente de la Catedral esta la Oficina de Turismo que te pueden decir tambien donde conseguirla. Una palabra de consejo; hay albergues en Leon que no aceptan peregrinos que empiezan el Leon o sea que no tengan credenciales ya estampadas. La razon es que tristemente muchos que no son peregrinos se aprovechan de la situacion y se consiguen credenciales para quedarse en albergues. Ten un "Plan B" para quedarte esa primera noche en Leon. Yo te recomiendo el autobus desde la Terminal 3 de Barajas llegas hasta Leon. Tambien puedes mandar tu maleta desde cualquier correo en Leon. Buen Camino! Que Dios bendiga tus planes!
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Ditto:

Pacha - usually the month of May has a lot of rain so make sure you have a good poncho and clothing that can tumble dry. The boots / shoes high ankle it to protect themselves from the mud . Promo sandals for you to use when you are not walking . The baggage from Madrid to Santiago you can mail it in a box that you can buy at any mail send to Madrid and Santiago. There are two options ; I can send by postal mail to Santiago where you write a note that you 're Peregrina and put it aside . The maximum that are stored 2 weeks free . The other option is to send it to the manager of this forum, Ivar ( http://www.caminodesantiago.me/luggage-storage-in-santiago-de-compostela/ ) to the address :

Ivar has a minimum payment and you keep your package without problem for max 2 months. Many people use the services of Ivar .

The route from Leon 's cute ; you enjoy it. In Leon Cathedral has credentials. In front of the Cathedral is the Tourist Office they can also tell you where to get it . A word of advice ; Leon 's hostels do not accept pilgrims begin the Leon that is already stamped with no credentials. The reason is that sadly many who are not pilgrims take advantage of the situation and get credentials to stay in hostels. Have a " Plan B" to stay that first night in Leon . I do recommend the bus from Terminal 3 of Barajas arrive until Leon . You can also send your bag from any mail in Leon . Buen Camino ! May God bless your plans!
