Camino Portugues (March-April 24)

Hello from the Camino Portugues! A few days ago going through Pontevedra, we spotted a souvenir shop selling Estrella Galicia related merch - think t-shirts and hoodies, that type of thing. The shop was shut when we walked past and then we never ended up making it there the next morning as we totally blanked!

For various reasons, we’d love to grab a t-shirt on the way but haven’t spotted anywhere on the route since that sells them.

Does anyone know of a souvenir shop in Santiago that might sell something of the sort? We will be arriving tomorrow and would love to get one before we leave.

Bo Camiño

Try the Nikis chain of stores (there are several in the old town), they have that type of stuff.

Yes, Nikis is your best bet.
When I was walking the Portugués, I was once served a beer in an Estrella Galicia glass with a 'La Casa de Papel'/ 'Money Heist' design. Never have I wanted to nick a beer glass more. Luckily my lightweight rucksack was my conscience...

If you know anything about the history of pilgrimage, you'll know that pilgrims always, always bought souvenirs along the way - and they certainly weren't all pious ones...

Neither the pilgrims nor the souvenirs...
