If any of the many conflicts worldwide wouldn't stop you I don't see why the war in Ukraine would... unless it spreads to Spain.

I do think things will be more expensive. Currently I am reading about a shortage and increase in the cost of Sunflower and Olive Oil. Also fuel prices will likely drive up costs of manufacturing, transportation, power, etc.

I think we are very fortunate that we are able take such a wonderful journey when others are fleeing their homes. Be grateful and just keep Ukraine in your thoughts and prayers. But unless things escalate significantly - the war is far from Spain/Portugal. Prices may increase, but otherwise it should be safe to travel.

Yes, there are big price increases, especially fuel (which impacts the price of everything else) across Europe.

Cyber attacks could really mess with transportation, reservation databases or fuel availability.

True, but walking pilgrims will probably be less affected than the rest of the population.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.
