iPad restore.
I am traveling and just got an error message that says I need to restore my iPad by connecting to my computer and then reinstalling iOS. I don’t have access to a computer. Is there anything I can do?

Your iPad must be restored - and to do so you need access to either a PC (with iTunes installed) or a Mac computer (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of macOS). Use of a computer is unavoidable.
Download and use iTunes for Windows – Apple Support
Update to the latest version of iTunes – Apple Support
If you don’t have access to a suitable computer of your own, that of a helpful friend or family member will suffice. Alternatively, the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) will be delighted to assist.
