If it is not the destination but the journey; then why can you not get a ticket to travel, unless you have the name of a place, to where you are going? ... full info

Home and Away
Bob Carlsen

Congratulations on finishing the GGW!!
I arrive in Edinburgh on 23 Aug. I have a question. Will Google Maps on my AT&T cell phone work in Scotland just using WiFi at the beginning of each day? I plan on using Skype to contact my wife each day also using WiFi on my laptop of cell phone. Plan B would be to buy a cell phone with minutes and data when I arrive at EDI. Any suggestion? Thanks for your help!

Cell phone usage around the world
Bob, I do not have an iphone. I use Google FI service which works everywhere in the world I have been or would like to go. It is $35 per month for 2 phones and $10 per gigabyte of data per month anywhere. Local calls are free but wifi calls internationally also are free. So all my google stuff works wonderfully. I had bad experience with T-mobile, Verizon and switched to Google FI. I use an Android, Pixel 5a phone and it tracks apps with maps and google maps and allows me to keep in constant communications at home and with places where I travel. Here is a referral link: https://g.co/fi/r/3TR30R
