Mailing food supplies

My friend and i are planning to hike the trail form south to north in September and would like to send some street clothes ahead to Calanzana for wearing after the trip. Can parcels be mailed General Delivery like in the US? Anyone know how to get the address?

It also made me wonder if the Hotel Monte d'oru receives mail delivery or UPS? Could a food cache be sent there? What about the Hotel at Haut Asco? Would they make it in time if sent from Porto Vecchio? (about 6 days)

No one's mentioned doing this, so it seems pretty unlikely. Anyways, just a thought.

What the hell are you wearing on the trail then?
A bikini?

It worked for us in france mainland ...

We landed at Marseille, on the way to GR-20, and sent a package to the hotel in Paris for the vacation after the trail.

I would suggest finding a French speaking friend and calling the hotel in advnac asking them to keep the package for couple of days
