A. DO NOT convert your money to pesos if you’re going to a resort. B. Take 100 dollars in singles and tip that way.
Yes! Great advice!
Why? You're joking right
🤷♀️
I live in the DR and converting money is the best thing you can do
Okay!! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for all the great info! We're heading there in September for our 25th anniversary, so this helps alot!
Awwww congrats!! Thanks for watching!!
Thanks a lot again! Great information as always. VIP services must be awesome.
Thanks for watching 😍

Nacho travels is Great! Thanks for the tip!
Thanks for the support!!
Great video. Never been. Airport looks new. Planning a trip there soon
Awesome!! Thanks for watching!!
We were in Dominicana one month ago!This is really paradise in my opinion!. Thanks for your video.Greetings and respect from Estonia!
Thank you for watching. It really is. Want to go back now ha ha
@@3Days3Noches Our next destination is Maldives.Did you have been?
Not yet!!! Very far lol
Time for an updated 2024 Punta Cana Tips. We are going next month and love your videos!
I want to go soooo bad 😍😍😍 I love your energy vibing with them
Ha ha thank you!!! Love DR
Great info!!! Thanks!!! Heading to The DR soon. I'll have to look and see if you have reviewed Excellence El Carmen.
We have not! But there are a few good videos out there on it I think!
We are returning for our 3rd trip to the DR in June. But we are bringing our kids and our best friends this time. We have been to this side of the airport and the southwest terminal side so I have experience both the deplaning outside and at the terminal. The DR is our favorite spot so far that we been to thanks for your reviews.
Thank you so much for watching!!!! We love it there too! How can you not?!!
Wow Airport is so much modern than when I last travelled to Punta Cana 2012.Really beautiful improvement Love it as well as wayyyy busier . 😊
Really??? That’s so cool. Thanks for watching!!
Excelente
Gracias!!!
Thank you ❤
Thank you!!!
Great video, specially the advice to arrange transportation ahead of time. I like beer Presidente also
Gracias!!! Thanks for watching!!
Thank you for the helpful videos! I’m reaching end of my 9 night stay here in the DR.
I flew in delta and we deboarded into the building. Arrived Tuesday at 3pm and expected lines and wasn’t bad
I brought several waterproof and water resistant wallets in different colors and kept different amounts of money in them to aid with haggling and keep things originated. Made it easy to say all I have is this and show empty wallet after you pull out money.
Ha ha nice!!! So happy to hear the lines weren’t bad. Hope you had a great stay.
@@3Days3Noches Glad I followed your recommendation of Diamond transpiration for all my needs in DR they were Great and Picked me up 3 hours before flight gave me time to get thru lines and for me to not see the floor sign facing the wrong way for terminals 27-30 and walk to end of wrong side of airport. I ran into several other people asking where 27 and 28 were and they got response “to right” or “down ramp” then we eventually had someone say go back to where we showed eticket and before we enter duty free store that’s where the gates for 27-30 are. Then when I got there I laughed because sign was facing into duty free store someone must have bumped it. Looks like those are new gates.
Thought you might get a laugh and thought maybe potentially video idea
🤣🤣🤣 Good to know!!!
Although this is my ninth time that I'm travelling to Puta Cana Bahia Principe Fantasia it is always nice to watch in case something that has been changed, your vlog reminded me the size of sunscreens since my daughter and granddaughter are traveling with a carry-ons. also a Tip from my part, always have few bathing suits and shorts, have them mixed in case your luggage gets lost which has happened to us but received the carry-on back in few weeks luckily we had taken precautions. soon we travel again lol.
Awesome. Thank you so much for watching and for these great tips!!
Thank you for the travel tips videos soo good
Thank you for watching!!
Great video! Going for the first time next month. Been to Playa Del Carmen and Puerto Vallarta a dozen or more times but decided a change would be nice. Thanks for the recommendation of Diamond Transfer. Always like to get a real referrals.
Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks for this informative video. As a wheelchair user I hear horrible stories about deplaning and boarding the aircraft. Nice to see ramps and that the airport is easily negotiable.
Thank you for watching! Ugh that’s horrible that airports are not more on top of this!!! I’m so sorry!
Flying in on Westjet or Sunwing from Canada you deplane out on the tarmac via the plane's stairs and get on a bus with standing room to go to the terminal so it depends on where you fly from. The people needing assistance are told to stay on the plane as they may have a special loading ramp which I haven't seen.
I've been to the DR twice, both times we flew into the smaller concourse and we deplaned at the building (no bus). We flew Delta once and American Airlines once. We never had any major lines to deal with, getting thru security went pretty quickly both arriving and departing. We did check luggage and we used one of the luggage guys to pull our luggage from the baggage area to the transportation area...each time, they helped us cut the line and go straight thru to the front of the security area line.
Woo hoo you got lucky!!
im going next year i have been before and its my favourite place
Love it!!
Our last trip, Dec '22, was when we found out about the bus system from/to the airplanes. This was a huge time waster so be prepared for that as you've pointed out. This actually affects our decision to go back (or at least WHEN, I do love your hint about before noon on Sunday). But you hit the nail on the head for everything that's for sure. We don't usually care too much about VIP at the airport upon landing (we do on the departure going home) but the cost is quite a bit. I assume you're from the US and have to get your own ground transportation as we in Canada usually have it included. So for Canadians, if you book private transportation ensure you tell your rep AT the airport so the bus/van doesn't sit there waiting for you as they try to find you (even though you've already left in another vehicle). This has happened to many people and it is very discourteous. Love all of your hints etc as we do take them into account when we travel :)
Thank you so much for watching! I guess they don’t want people walking all over the runway but immigrations is literally right there 😅
@@3Days3Noches true! We were told WHY they bus but I found it hard to believe that someone didn't listen and just "wandered" off the marked walkways and somehow got killed. But it is a nuisance...however, IF you do get that Airport VIP I think they pick you up right from the tarmac, not 100% sure but I think that's the way it is. We saw people with signs of names. This bus thing wasn't there in 2019 (our last trip otherwise to DR).
Yes I think you’re right!!! Def going VIP next time.
the government has a new policy in place for tourists, in order for visitors to enter, you now need a return ticket.
Oh good to know thank you!
Great content. You're hire 😂
🤣🤣🤣 Thank you!
Ive been on another part of the island back in 2020,21. What I learned is the difference between staying in close around the locals verses a heavy tourist area. Prices. 1 US dollar is a little over 50 pesos. So if you want to hand out US ones go ahead, thats all right, But if you want to stretch your tipping dollar, use their money. Of course don't short change them, but strike a balance and you'll save as you enjoy your vacation. Not sure what's up around there because it will be my first time on that side of the island but I do know that resorts are known to charge american prices so if your in a cab and see a local convenience store if there is such a thing in that area. Hit it up for bottled water etc, because you'll be most likely paying what the locals pay for bottled water and other goods.
Also remember that the first price of anything in DR is NOT the final price. If they say 10, say 5 or walk away and watch the magic happen.
😎😎
I've read a few comments....and I Will definitely by using this tactic! "Yesterday's price is not today's price!" -Fat Joe- 😅
😎
I went to Punta Cana on june 2023, and I was expecting a very busy airport at my arrival, but I was very surprised to see an almost empty facility. It was very quick and easy to get my luggage and finding the transportation that I arranged previously. This was a completely different experience to that I had arriving to Cancun on oct 2021, to a complete chaos of an airport.
Departing from PC wasn't much different than the arrival. It took more time because of all the things you have to do (security, bag checking, etc.) and waiting for your flight, but it was OK.
Overall, good and safe experience.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!!!
Be happy that when you arrived it was empty.
Those taxi men are robbers and nagging thieves.
The cops look weirdly dresses. Thought the guy was wearing someone else’s uniform because it was unbuttoned. He was a cop
Both times we flew to Punta Cana, the worst part by far was that walkway once you get outside (where you look for your transportation).....while most people there are legit and are trying to help, there are definitely some shady folks there as you "walk the gauntlet."
Both times, we had pre-arranged bus transportation to the resort through our Canadian tour operators, but beware.....the shady people look at your bag tags, then try to guide you to their vehicles...."Oh, oh, Air Canada....this way" or "Oh oh, Sun Wing....this way!!!"
Make sure they have your name and info on their list, before going where they tell you to! Do NOT give them your name and where you are staying!
So true!!! It is similar in Cancun!!! That’s why we always say pre arrange transportation! And Confirm!!! Just like you said. Thank you for sharing!!!
hmmm... interesting wording...
So I wouldn't say that they are shady they're just hustling/working very diligently to make a dollar. they're not going to kidnap you or rip you off and risk not being able to do business there it's their livelihood and they have to survive longer than your brief one visit...
I found usually just telling him I have arrangements is good enough. they're looking for their folks who don't and there's tons of people who come through there who don't know what they're doing and actually need help...
if you're scared of the environment and the people there in then perhaps you should choose a different destination
just saying...
I think everyone experiences it differently! It bothers people more than others for sure. I love your perspective. Thank you!!
Our family is going there this summer and can’t wait. Wondering if you will do reviews of any of the Barcelo resorts.
She has reviews of the Barcelo Maya Riviera adults only resort in Mexico. It's one the the channels oldest videos. 😁
Thank you!!!
So fun! We are not going to be doing any of the Barcelo in Punta Cana this year. Maybe in the future. We have a friend that brings his family there every year and loves it!
Thank you for answering questions. It is such a breath of fresh air to know someone we can rely on when we have questions. My wife and I are hooked on your videos. If you know anything about the Occidental Punta Cana (Barcelo Resort) let me know, we are considering this place for our family this year.
You’re welcome! I’ve heard that resort is not good at all. Seen several TikToks on it that say stay away!!
3:00 that makes me want to go back home!!!!!!!
Awwww
Very helpful vid thanks @@3Days3Noches
I just travelled to DR in February and bought a roll-on sunscreen bar and facial bar to put in my carry-on.
That’s a great idea. Thank you!!
@jotherrien7466- what days of the week did you fly in and out of punta cana? was it busy at the airport during those times? Thanks!
Please update your video to add the fact that there are 2 terminals depending on the airline you are departing on. Thanks for a great video
Great point!!! Thank you!!
So I stayed at Punta Cana Resort and Dominican Republic I get it all though that was over twenty years ago
Nice!!!
I have travelled to Punta Cana many times. I have also used the regular immigration line and the VIP services several times. I don’t mind the regular if I go during the slow season usually no more than 15 mins in line. I book the VIP service when I am traveling there during the peak times. The vip service is amazing. A representative will meet you at your plane gate. If your plane is lucky enough to get to a gate if you have to deplane outside and then take the bus they will meet you at the bottom of the ramp and take you in a golf car to the vip lounge where they will take care of all your immigration and customs paperwork while they offer you refreshments and light snacks. While your paperwork is getting completed a porter will gather up all your checked bags, once your paperwork is all completed the representative will escort you and all your luggage to the vip pickup area away from the general pickup area and you will board your transportation. It’s a amazing service to use when going during the really busy times. Stress free and a major time saver.
Thank you so much! Now I’m really bummed we couldn’t get it ha ha!!
Where’s your favorite place to stay?
@@3Days3Noches my favorite place would be sanctuary Cap Cana honeymoon suite or majestic elegance rooftop plunge pool
We just got back from Sanctuary!! Amazing. Putting together my review now on it!!
Looking forward to seeing the review from you guys for sanctuary
Thanks for the mindful detail. Was COVID testing required? If so, suggestions on where to take the test?
It’s no longer required! If you are coming from a country other than US then maybe google it! Pretty sure it’s not for anyone
They do now have e gates. And if you follow her advice and just bring little bitty sizes of sunblock, it’ll work if you’re only staying for the short time she does, but if you’re not, you can join me as a melanoma survivor if you’re lucky. The cost of a checked bag or waiting for a checked bag with sunscreen is a lot better than being a cancer survivor. Trust me learn from my mistakes.
Yes very true! I never advise people not to use it. I also say buy large bottles when you get there if you need more. The benzenes in that stuff are also cancer causing so beware
Great video but wish you could explain a little more on finding your bus if for example booked through Air Transat. We were wondering around the parked vehicles with no clue as to where the Air Transit bus was .
Thanks for the suggestion! We never take the bus, but the next time we go will film that area!
Hi , thank you for sharing this video with us very helpful, I just have one question if you please let me know if we have access to duty-free on the way out just to figure if we can postpone my purchase of Cigars or drinks till the day of take off , and not to buy them on my way in and Cary them all mh trip .
Thank you inadvance 😊
Yes there are duty free shops at departure!
3:35 - Presidente is not good, it's just usually served ice cold, and extremely refreshing on a hot summer day so it's perfect lol
You may be right 😂
Great video! What's considered a decent tip for your driver/bartenders/waiter there? In USD
$1-5 is great for waiters and bartenders. Sometimes at the night restaurant’s we might give a little more. Drivers 20% of the ride we always give.
I’m going
Nice!!!
Hi, which Punta Cana all-inclusive hotel would you recommend? I’ve watched and subscribed to your videos and would really appreciate your opinion for a relaxing holiday for a couple ages 65+. Not really into the party scene, but we appreciate good food, great service, great beaches with white sand and great pools. I had booked the Caribe Delux Princess (only found 1 video on this hotel), but I can easily change since the trip is planned for next year. Some of the other videos I came across are Grand Bavaro, Majestic Colonial, Majestic Elegance (more expensive than Colonial), and Royalton Punta Cana. These are just a few, but I would appreciate a personal recommendation from someone like yourself who has been their multiple times. Thanks in advance for responding.
Thanks for watching! Omg you would love Sanctuary Cap Cana. I know it’s a little pricier than the other ones. If not Majestic. We are going to Excellence Punta Cana in a few months to try that one.
Was there in late May. We did not deplane outside. This looks entirely different from where we came in. I checked a bag and it was no big deal. There were a lot of lines but they moved pretty fast. They have a lot of people working there but most don't have good english skills.
Probably a different terminal :). Thanks for sharing your experience! It def helps!!
The other terminal is completely different
We need to go over there next time!!
I love this channel, I have a question, does the Punta Cana airport have self check in kiosks for departing Punta Cana, for us carry on only folks.
Thanks so much
Thank you!! For boarding passes? Yes some airlines do but you should try to check in ahead of time on the airline app and get your boarding pass that way
@3Days3Noches what about getting your passport scanned and decarlation to customs, sorry for being a pain.
Need to check out Playa Samana Ricon anf Mt Limon just dont go eastern weekend its always packed with almost the whole country their. Great video all great tips
Awesome thank you so much!!
I never knew you could do this vip in punta cana. I only ever heard of club moby in jamica. Is it available for international tarvallers too if we flew from ireland and UK?
I know!! It seems great!!! If there are spots open. Check out the website I put for it in the description of the video!!
0:52 Deplaning outside is such a cool experience.
Curious -- did you find issues with people there trying to push on taking your bags for a fee? Had that a couple times I was there (last time was 2016) and I just kindly declined.
Must say that the upgrades to the airport are nice to see. It has come a long way.
Yes that still happens there lol!!!
We've always welcomed the help especially with several bags and a laptop...and the difficulty of finding our bus - they do it all for us! And always at least a five dollar tip with a Canadian lapel pin attached from each of us.
I hope punta cana gets more popular. it seems my usual go to international airport (dfw) doesnt have direct flights for the dates Im taking samples of (and I despise connections!). either that or expedia doesnt have the most up to date info.
Yes they need more direct flights there!!
Hey. Question about perfume. You said they flagged your bag and you were supposed to take your perfume out of your carry on coming back???
Sometimes when departing it’s better to take your liquids out of your bag and it will go more smoothly
Do you recommend the VIP line? It took us 2+ hours to get through the line last time! Is that typical?
I haven’t done it but yes I do!!!
To make sure I heard correctly, the airport is open air?
Thank you for all the tips😊
Thanks for watching. Not the roof but the doors stay open to enter and to depart
I've heard the e-ticket is no longer a requirement to enter/leave the DR. Are you aware of a recent change in that requirement?
Wow exelente video. I thought the resorts offer free transportation
Thank you. Not all of them. Ours was going to be $120 round trip
Excelente with a C!!
😎
We just got back from the DR. DON'T use Diamond Transportation as noted by this video. We had a reservation booked 2 months in advance. We arrived, but no one was there. We had to ask another company to call the Diamond rep. She came and didn't have our reservation. I showed her my printout, she took a picture and told us to go sit down. After a considerable wait, they scrounged up an SUV (no company name) and loaded us. Never told us what happened but worst of all, no apology. And of course, no welcome drink... nothing, just dropped us off.
Ugh!!! So sorry. We never heard of having issues before!!
@@3Days3Noches No problem, it wasn't your issue. In fact, I think I saw one of your more recent videos and you weren't using these folks now. I enjoy your videos!
@redlady1966 Ty so much!
Hi, thanks a lot for your tips. Arriving to Punta Cana in 10 days. Is it possible to take Uber from the Airport instead of Airport transportation? Sounds to me like a simpler solution. To avoid any confusion with not finding them. Would love to hear your thoughts.
I don’t think they have it the airport but I could be wrong
You should have mentioned this is Terminal A! Terminal B is completely different and much better in my opinion!
True!!!
I’m planning a surprise Christmas vacation for my daughter but I’m having a problem with downloading my e-tickets. Any advice because I know I have to show it to someone at the airport. I’m wondering if I’m trying to get it to early? First time visiting Punta Cana and a bit nervous
Yes possibly bc it’s too early. Try again as you get closer!!!
Do not exchange your American dollar at the airport. It’s a rip off. Your local bank in the US can get you pesos before you go ( with notice) or carry $1 and 5’s. They make decent tips.
Great advice thank you
If you’re in the north east near Philly or New York, fly out of EWR and on either JET BLUE OR AMERICAN.
I from NY and I'm flying out of JFK. Should I be concerned?
What airline?
@@3Days3Noches Jet Blue
Idk I think they are fine
Always ask your resort if they have free transportation
Yes! Often it’s shared transportation so you have to wait for everyone else taking the shuttle to arrive from their flights
How many places to get a beer after security?
Thank you for the video. I’m trying to book with diamond but I’m not seeing an option for blk car service. Did you have to request this at the time of booking?
I’ll ad another link here in the comments
@@3Days3Noches Thank you 😊
🌞🌞
Hi! So right now you can only upgrade through them. They are working on getting a code for me to give out to subscribers
Hey great video I have a question me and my husband plan to take our daughter here in July for her birthday but her passport will be back in may is it ok to still travel there with here or we have to wait to 6 months to take her because her passport will be brand new she just got it thank you so much if you can get back to me on this thanks
No that’s great! Some countries don’t allow you to enter if it’s going to expire within 6 months. But DR even is okay with 3 months. A brand new passport is great!! That sounds fun!!
Carry on -‘what about a razor? 😎
A disposable one yes!!
Traveling with 2 young kind (3 & 4) over Thanksgiving... Would a stroller make the airport experience better or worse?
Better! I see parents using them all of the time. But you have to check it at the gate I think
do they not have tsa pre check ? if so will that be similar to the vip services ??
I did not see that there. Yes similar but you have to pay for it etc.
I was born and raised in the USA but since my parents were Dominicans I managed to get a Dominican ID and use the citizen only line
🥳🥳🥳
God is everywhere but sleeps in dominican republic my country. DR has it all. You can take Uber.
Yes!!!
I wonna know if I travel to domanican Republic and I want to book a ticket to a next country I can book ticket n reservation at the airport ?
Usually yes! At the ticket counters
Thanks for this video. Ive booked a trip there for this Sept. with myself and my 3 daughters(17, 15, and 7). I've learned some things I didnt know. Like the fact that you have to have had a passport for at least 6months. Two of my daughters are currently applying for their passports as it there first time leaving the country. Is that rule really enforced? Im nervous now. 🥺
Thanks for watching! No actually to clarify your passport can’t expire within 6 months. So your daughters will be fine because they will have new ones that don’t expire for 5 years!! Good for you Dad bringing them on vacation!! Where are you staying!
@@3Days3Noches oh ok great! So I just found out that one of my daughters passport expires at the end of Jan. 😬. But you did mention in another post that DR sometimes left you go for 3months.
We are staying at the Grand Sirenis Punta Cana Resort & Aquagames
omg your comment scared me because i last minutes booked a trip with my boyfriend on July 22, 2023 to Bahia principe luxury ambar. I just reapplied for my passport because it expired a month ago and it should be coming in before that date😂 but i thought i would open the comments to her saying yeah you won’t be able to go. thank god lol.
Ha ha well you still need a valid passport. You can’t travel with an expired one
@@3Days3Noches yes i’m aware haha i just thought when she said she needed to have a passport for 6 months not expired for 6 months i got scared lol. it should be here within a few weeks so i can put in my actual passport information.
Where did you get the white shirt on the way leaving?
TJ Maxx or Marshall’s. Caution to the Wind is the brand. It’s nice and light
Hi, we’re from Belgium and i need to take medication for my ADHD (sort of relatine) where do i need to Carry it in?
The prescribed bottle
After you get your luggage are there bathrooms to change into shorts from pants? Coming down from Canada so I want to get into sandals and shorts asap!
Yes! Right behind where you get luggage there are restrooms
@@3Days3Nochesawesome! Thank you for the information. Didn’t want to be waiting and traveling to the resort in long pants lol!
@andrewtoynton7682 love it!!
What are the least busy days of the week to fly into & out of the Punta Cana Airport?
We always fly in on Sunday morning and it’s not too bad. I think staying away from people starting a vacation or weekends. So maybe sun-wed? Early morning
Does Punta Cana airport acknowledge wheelchair service requested through original airline when booked?
I’m not sure but that’s usually how it’s done at all airports
Do you think it would be worth it doing the VIP arrival service trough the airport?
If you can afford it YES!!!!
Do you actually have to fill out that ticket form online ?? Cause I feel like a lot of people don’t fill this out or know about it… is it actually a requirement or is it something you can do at the airport ?
Def do it ahead of time!
Thanks for the video. I see in the beginning of the video that we need to apply for the eTicket? I clicked the link and they charge $69 for a one-way eTicket. Is this required for US citizen? Thanks.
The airline usually puts the fee in the ticket but some don’t! Check with your airline
Oh let me fix that!
Yes thank you. I corrected the link in the video!!
Never have a problem with my big suitcase, and I don't see I can I fit even in a small Cary on for a week😮
Ha ha well that’s good that you’ve never had an issue!
where is the "Coming2" transfer transportation in the airport ? (maybe you know)
I don’t know but they are all in the same area.
How do you book the luxury option for diamond transfers?
We actually don’t have connections with them any more but I’m assuming through WhatsApp
Hi, Does PC airport have a smoking area on arrival or on departure?
Hi! I don’t smoke so I’m not sure but I imagine that they do!
2 terminals A-older one. B- the newer one. Both similar set ups
Thank you. !
How can I find out what milk they sell over there or if they sell milk at the airport ? I have a toddler who is a milk drinker and we are from New York and I don’t know if she is going to like the milk from over there .
Hi! I’m not sure! All I know is I follow a creator named @williamtaudien who loooves milk and drank it all the time in Mexico but it was milk made in Mexico. There will be no way to tell if they like it ahead of time or not.

Thank you for the tip on diamond transfers. Did you communicate thru whatsapp too?

Do you have a link for the transportation services please and thank you

I've heard the e-ticket is no longer a requirement to enter/leave the DR. Are you aware of the validity in that?
In Nov 2033 it was still required. Not sure if they got rid of it since then
Heading there in a couple days. E-ticket is very much still a thing.
A friend is traveling to Punta Cana with a very new passport. Less than 6 mos. Will she have a problem?
No! It’s only passports that are about to expire
Me again- another question- Does Diamond transportation do all year transportation (especially March 2024 or April 2024) ? Thanks!!!
Yes! They provide year round!
we couldnt find the walk in lounge on departure only vip
We had trouble finding it too. It was tucked back in the corner
What if you have global entry? Does that only work in the USA?
It depends on the airport. We have it and they didn’t have a line for it
I was hoping to see something for those people who come to the airport to pick up passengers, maybe I missed that one important message.
Thanks, I love PC,always make plans ahead of time, 7 days for me I need sunscreen, sorry don't agree on carry-on.
It’s okay!!! I totally get it. What’s your favorite resort??
Okay- here is some questions- When it is time to leave PC is the airport easily marked to where you have to board the bus to get to airplane? We are flying Air Canada and I know we are going to arrive at Terminal A and have to take bus to customs/ security and get our private transportation (we are taking your recommended Diamond Transport) to our destination, that seems pretty easy (because of this video), BUT how do we find AIR CANADA when we are departing? Thanks so much. Blessings!!!
Hi!!! Thanks for the support!! It’s small enough where you can find your way. Everyone in the terminal goes through one security etc then you will have a gate assignment. Hope that helps!
@@3Days3Noches Yes it does! Thank you for continually answering my questions. I trust your judgement and I am one that thoroughly researches a place that I never have been. Your videos are a godsend! Blessings!!!!
Of course!! I appreciate it so much when people watch my videos because I know there are alot out there!
Did you purchase an esim? If so, with who?
I did not. I just use my phone carrier
