No more SIM card swaps in the middle of a terminal. I now use a global eSIM provider that lets you download local data plans straight to your phone. Setup takes 5 minutes and you’re online the second you land.

And everything else? I digitize it. My Apple Wallet holds:

  • Backup cards
  • Transit passes
  • Hotel confirmations
  • Digital vaccine card
  • And yes — even my coffee shop punch cards (priorities)
