Google flights
One day you might decide to pack your bags, buy a ticket and just run away. But you don’t know where to go. With Google Flights, you can see a map of the world and get an idea of cities and ticket prices. This is not only an inspiration tool but also the place you can buy tickets, compare prices and set customized alerts to know when that ticket you want so much has lower prices.
Nomad list
Do you still need some inspiration? Maybe for your next Digital Nomad experience? This is what you need. This tool will help you choose your next destination by setting a few customizable filters like budget, nightlife, proximity to the beach, safety, temperatures and more. Although we think the monthly prices aren’t so accurate, we still think this is a great tool to get a general feel and help you plan your next destination. This is one of our favorite tools for travelers!
Duolingo
Ok, you picked your next destination but you do not know the language and you have a long flight. No worries, you have Duolingo. You can download a few lessons and learn while having fun, pretending to look busy next to your chatty seat neighbor. This app will probably have the language you want to learn and locals will appreciate it.
FlyOnward
You’re lucky enough to travel without having a return date because you want to enjoy that country you wanted to visit so much and then see where the destiny takes you. I bet you are not the only one that has dreamt about it. But, in some countries, this could be a problem, since they want to be sure you’re not planning to stay more than you should.
With this tool, you can say you have a trick under your sleeve. This allows you to rent an onward ticket to present to immigration in case you think they could ask you for a return ticket. Depending on your booking option, the ticket will last for exactly 24 or 48 hours, so all you need to do is make sure you’re arriving at your destination within 24 or 48 hours of booking your onward flight. The ticket will be automatically canceled after that period.
But of course, if you’re planning to stay for a longer period of time than you should, make sure you make the proper paperwork to be allowed to stay in the country. We always encourage our friends to do the right thing.
Google Maps
After living for almost a year in Sydney, Google Maps became my best friend. Sydney transportation is very reliable but could be confusing sometimes, or every time to be honest. This powerful tool will help you to determine which transportation is the best option and suggest some other alternatives. Also, it will tell you where you have to wait, when and how long the ride is. Also, if you set when you need to be at your destination, Google Maps will tell you when you need to leave your home. How awesome is that!
Tripadvisor
Choosing a restaurant, hotel or a tour is not easy with so many options! With Tripadvisor you can make it a bit easier by reading recommendations, ratings and even the restaurant Menu! Don’t waste your time doing long researches when you can enjoy more of what you love: travel.
