On August 31, 2023 I purchased a Vodafone SIM card for my Samsung A53 in the Train Station Mall area of the Madrid Airport. It worked flawlessly across Spain. No issues with WhatsApp or my phone's contacts.
I also had bad luck with the wearing out holes in pure merino long sleeve shirts for hiking. I changed to a Smart wool shirt that lasted through the Camino's miles and daily washings. I got a second one for Christmas and I recommend them!
