When we first started traveling to Europe they didn’t have cell phones. You trudged through pay phones, train stations, and ticket booths. The weather was a guess as were restaurant hours. This leads to a new travel rule:
The phone is a travel essential. You use it for:
- Tickets/Passes - buying, storage and display
- Paying for stuff
- Weather
- Time tables for attractions
- Making reservations
- Translation when my poor foreign language skills fail me
- Maps and navigation- walking and driving
- And blogging of course
We paid an arm and a leg to keep our exiting phone numbers here. A SIM card (in Italy use TIM) works just as well and is cheaper by a lot.
