Before I took on this trip to Japan, I was worried about how I would stay connected out there and wasn’t really sure what to do. After searching online, I came across eSIMs. This was the first I’d heard of them at the time, and I found loads of different companies — but eventually, I decided to go with Saily after one of my relatives recommended it too.

It’s so easy to use. No need to swap SIM cards — you just set up your plan before you go, and it activates instantly when you land. You can then find your hotel, search for the best restaurants… and even check out dating apps if you really want to.

I have used it all around Asia now, and sometimes during my flight layovers if they are a long duration. It works in over 200+ countries and I found its the best value for money.
