- Backpacks and PackingHello everyone! I'm planning a trip and am a little confused when it comes to choosing a travel bag. I wanted a bag that was both functional and comfortable, would be able to hold my belongings and would be durable on the go. However, there are so many options on the market that I don’t know where to start. I would like to ask everyone, what factors do you consider when choosing a travel school bag? Do you have any recommended brands or styles? Are there any special functional designs that are particularly useful when traveling? I also wanted to know how to ensure the comfort and durability of a school bag, and how to make the best choice among the various options. If you have any experience or suggestions, please feel free to share them in the comments below! Thank you so much!Like
- Travel Latin AmericaHi! I just wanted to ask about that scooter you bought in Mexico. I'm looking around but I'm having some doubts about the process of buying one, having it registered and crossing borders with it as a foreigner (I'm Spanish). I'm just wondering how you did it and if a Mexican citizen (your friend) put his name on the insurance/the scooter registration as I've read that's the easiest way to do it? And just a few final questions: how much did it cost you? How was the process of reselling it? And is there any reason you chose not to travel with the scooter across the country (considering you owned it) so instead using buses, flights...? Many thanks in advance.Your youtube channel is really positive and inspiring and I'm taking lots of notes on places to go. Looking forward to my trip across Central-South America. Will be starting with Cuba! Best regards, AlexLike
- Travel Latin AmericaHello everyone! I am solo traveling to Brazil in a month, and will be there for around a month. I was thinking about the mobile data – I don’t want to get lost without the internet, and I have no idea what to expect Wifi-wise. My phone takes eSIMs, so I am planning to use Saily – has anyone used it? I have heard some good things about the price and reception from others about it, but was wondering about Brazil specifically. Thanks in advance!Like
