Awesome 👌
VERY valuable info, Kristin! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! You're welcome @ocho8172 😊
Thank you for all of these great recommendations. Internet has become a travel essential.
You're absolutely right, @ianpatrick23! You are welcome and thank you for watching 😊 Safe travels 🌐✈️
Great topic and mastered Kristin!
Glad it was helpful, Anna!
I'm headed to Morocco in January and need to figure out how to use my phone there before then. Thank you for the great info!
A great surprise in moving to the EU was that my Spanish SIM works in other countries pretty seamlessly. I’ve got unlimited data and it costs under 20€ per month. We really don’t know how bad our cell services are in the US until we find out for ourselves what it’s like in other countries.
Yes there’s great coverage and crossover among European countries. Nice perk!
for sure, US cell phone services have been bad for decades. I travel every 2 years in Europe to see my family, so that's how I know.
I love all of these different options for getting Wi-Fi on the go. I'll have to remember some of these other options because I have getting more and more inconvenienced by terrible Wi-Fi at hotels lately (here in the US). Thanks for the video Kristin!
You're welcome! 😊 I'm glad you found the options useful, @scottman895!
Thank you, Kristen. Most grateful for your great videos and informative content.
You're very welcome, Malcolm! 😊 I'm thrilled to hear that you find my videos helpful. Happy travels and stay tuned for more content! 🌎📹🌟
This is a helpful video. Thank you!
So helpful! Thank you ❤
You’re welcome!
Excellent topic. thank you
My pleasure! My Patreon Patrons requested it
Awesome Kristin. One more valuable information.! A good speed net connection at a reasonable rate is so valuable during traveling. Thanks for sharing. You're so savvy and beautiful too.
Thank you so much, Jay! 😄 I totally agree, a reliable internet connection is a traveler's best friend. Happy travels! 🌐💼🌍
@@TravelingwithKristin 👍
Thank you for sharing😊
My pleasure, @kushal809😊
Thank you for useful info.
Glad it was helpful, Michael! Thanks for watching 😊
So happy you made this! Awesome info. Verizon offers international data for $10 per day. That's convenient but also an extra $300/month! I worry about coverage. Even in the US where I live, it can go from 5gUW to spotty 4g in just a block or two.
You’re welcome, Ben! Verizon should cap the charges on an international plan but it’s still expensive compared to the alternatives
Hello Kristin, we have used Solis hot spot for years and it is perfect all over the globe.
😄 That's great to hear that you've had a positive experience with Solis hotspot, @Sirjohnny. It's awesome when you find a reliable travel companion like that. Happy travels! 🌐✈️🌍
Keep in mind, for the iPhone 14 and 15 if you buy it in the U.S., there is no SIM tray! Thats why I am waiting to fly out of the U.S. in some months from now to buy an Iphone 15 in Canada with a SIM tray in it.. Apple things Americans don't travel, its crazy!
Yes that's true; technology is changing fast! That's why I added about the eSims. Although you can also buy an older unlocked phone to use local SIMs. And you should be able to register a physical SIM card as an eSim (although I haven't tried it yet because I still have an iPhone 12).
I'm not sure you can register a physical SIM as an eSim.. but will the iPhone 15 which I want to get, I can't get the U.S. version if I want the physical SIM, but it makes a big different when traveling, not only cheaper rates by having more options, but if your phone is damaged or you need to use a backup phone, you just take out the SIM and put it in.. Apple selling it without a physical SIM in the U.S. is soo wrong!@@TravelingwithKristin
So glad I found this video. You provided such great info before I start my trip. Thanks Kristin.
Is there an esim or something to use on a laptop? My local apartment infernet is really bad?
Does anyone know of any good e-sim cards to use as a hotspot with the cellphone for Asia? I need to work with my computer .(Not China) For Singapore, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Vietnam. Thanks in advance
Thanks
Welcome!
Really good information in this video, Kristin, thank you. I'm hoping to never have to use Starlink for anything, I'd hate to put $$$ in Elon's pocket, lol.
I'm glad you found the information helpful, Cindy! 😊
A friend in NY had a usb stick she plugged into her computer for service. Now I am in Europe looking for the same thing.
What’s a good upload/download that you are expecting for WiFi? Just curious.
I have 500 download at home. I look for an upload of at least 20-25mbps but it’s usually lower on data
For Romania we simply found it cheaper to purchase a local SIM card for an unlocked phone. That gave us a local phone number and data.
In the EU, internet access has been declared a fundamental right, and Wi-Fi hotspots are popping up everywhere. I thought I wouldn't need to pay for a data plan anymore because Wi-Fi was everywhere. However, now it seems the trend is quickly reversing, with fewer free hotspots. In Eastern Europe, it's still okay, but the same trend is emerging.
Thanks for sharing your insights and experiences, @travelvideos! 😊
Pocket wifi can work in village where is no service
The GlocalMe also takes a SIM card. Which is why I purchased it.
I love Elvis
😊🙌
You can get 2GB daily of 5G fast data for $2 to 5 a month in India

Nice!
Careful with the iPhone 15. They now have the SIM cards installed internally and have screwed us over on the option to do this anymore.
Going to Turkey in 5 days!
Enjoy! Watch my Turkey Vlog first for internet and sim info: ruclips.net/video/eB9PuftRr6I/видео.htmlsi=4S4W69JvlpTTL73W
Thanks for the video. Why are you telling people to use Google Fi? Google Fi is deleting accounts left and right and actually told me when I contacted them that their service is for the US only. That if people travel for short periods its ok but not longer term use. Also Verizon is a joke and charges 10.00 a day for International. I lowered down to a prepaid plan and turned off International. I use Google Voice for phone calls and a local sim. I hope to buy a dual sim phone soon
👍
😊
Starlink Roam by Elon Musk gives the fastest, most reliable Internet across Europe. Today 260/60 Mbit/s (down/up) was my top speed on Starlink
It looks awesome
Why would anyone need wifi if they have you?
