In the early days of cruising, Internet delivered via satellite used to be slow, expense, and charged by the minute. My strategy was to connect, download mail, disconnect, process mail, and reconnect. Often the minutes would tick away due to poor connectivity.

Once COVID-19 restrictions were over, my wife and I started travelling again. Reports of how Apple Air Tags helped travellers find lost baggage encouraged me to invest in Android alternatives, starting with two Tile trackers (https://www.tile.com/).
I switched my mobile phone from Telus to Koodo because Koodo is cheaper and their self-service website is easier to use - I regularly had to call Telus to enable call forwarding. While travelling recently, I got the usual popups reminding me of how expensive international texts and voice are outside of Canada and offering Easy Roam.
