Travel notebook / Six practical tools

Choose your next question.

Money and connectivity before your trip. Five tools work locally; the connection snapshot sends test traffic only with your consent.

Estimate data for the whole trip →
  1. Exchanging cash? Compare the amount you receive after a fee.

    Currency converter for your trip

  2. Buying an eSIM? Find the missing terms before you choose.

    Does this eSIM fit your trip?

  3. Planning a workday? Put fast-data limits beside your workload.

    What does “unlimited” leave for work?

  4. Arriving late? Check when the validity clock could start and stop.

    Plan the clock, not just the QR code.

  5. Carrying two connections? Look for the failures they still share.

    Is your backup really a different path?

  6. Before a client call? Compare this room’s primary and backup.

    Take a room-level connection snapshot.

Estimate the whole trip’s data budget.

The arithmetic, made visible.

days × people × [(video hours × video GB/hour) + (audio hours × audio GB/hour) + browsing GB/day + other GB/day] × (1 + buffer/100)

The starting assumptions are 1.2 GB/hour of video calls, 0.08 GB/hour of audio calls, 0.25 GB/day of browsing and messages, and 0.5 GB/day of uploads or other use. These are editable planning examples, not field measurements. Count shared usage once; downloads and system updates belong in other use.
