    These are great, Sonia. An I app I like to use for travel is called Pack The Bag. It's free and It gives you suggested items you may Need to pack and you can add or remove various packing items and/or create your own specific packing list, which is what I did. It takes time to make a personalized list, but the time was worth it to me bc now I can go through and check the items off as I pack and I know I'm set.

    Yes, Irish! why do you ask? :) We learn it in school in Ireland from the ages of 5-18, and as a result I am fluent! The first language of Ireland is English but there are areas that still have Irish as their first language :D So there you go!

    @ReclaimingMotherhood 12 років тому

    I've tried using wifi finder apps before, but haven't found one that's been too accurate or finds wifi that's actually a useable speed.
    The other travel app I use is TripIt (I just use the free version). Great to keeping my tickets, confirmation numbers, and other info organized.

    Embark NYC (my personal favorite) or HopStop are great apps for the subway in NYC; they both will give you exact directions and several options to choose from. Also I believe the HopStop app has other cities as well.

    Urbanspoon is a great restaurant finder! Goes way beyond the typical family restaurants and you can search by the type of food you're in the mood for!

    Maps Me is 2 in 1 apps. You download the map you want and you can search for places with wifi and a lot more things :D I don't know if it existed in 2012, though.

    T-Mobile has a plan that includes unlimited data in Europe. That means the phone becomes a GPS and you don't have to worry about finding a hot spot. Unfortunately, T-Mobile has abysmal coverage in the US, but in Europe it is excellent.

  • @noguiiig
    @noguiiig 11 років тому

    New subscriber from Switzerland. Love your videos.
    My girlfriend and I travel a lot (4-5 times a year mostly through Europe) and we couldn't live without TripAdvisor. It's really good for finding restaurants and hotels/Inns (it's was really useful during our road trip in Scotland).
    I'll check the apps you suggested and give you feedback eventually :)
    Seeya ;)

    Hey Sonia. Just wanted to see if you've ever tried "SayHi"? It's a voice-recognition app sold in the Apple App store that's pretty amazing and helped me in so many situations where I couldn't come up with the right word/phrase to use.

  • @TheCroisantt
    @TheCroisantt 12 років тому

    Hello Sonia! I just love your little vlogs! They are sooooooo helpful!
    I know that you've been to Germany but I was wondering if you have ever been to more eastern Europe countries, like Poland or Czech Republic and do you plan on going there, because I would love to see some videos from those countries! :)

  • @JesusBarrio

    best: tripadvisor. It has ranking of places for visiting, restaurants, hotels, maps.. and you can dowload it offline!

    • @Casandra117

      Typing "OK Maps" in the search box when looking at a map will also let you save that map for offline use.

    One issue with your suggested WiFi finder app; the iOS version is OK, but the Android version does not work with Android 4.0+ (Ice Cream Sandwich); Android 4.0 devices have been out for 7+ months, so frustrating that the support from the vendor is so slow to respond.

  • @CarolineFuzz

    To you yes, but we call it Irish, in Irish it is Gaeilge, gway-lig-a, so that's where you get the word Gaelic

  • @matthedgehog14
    @matthedgehog14 12 років тому

    I wouldn't buy map apps right now because the next android and iOS things will have turn by turn navigation built-in, also AroundMe might be useful for finding restaurants, gas stations etc. but it might only work well in more popular areas... not sure

    How did you get the signs translated. I travel every year to places that have Cyrillic alphabets and I also go the Georgia (the country) and Armenia often. So when i see signs like this გზა ერთი გზა I have no idea. Any tips?

    • @Magic_beans_

      You can either install an additional keyboard that allows you to type those characters, or you can use an app like Google Translate for iPhone that allows you to draw the characters.
