Travel
My pick for US nomads who want simple, pay-as-you-go transfers is Wise. Revolut suits those who value more app tools or can make a paid plan worth its cost. Jodi Bando, founder of fucklocal.com, says: “Revolut is the goto app for digital nomads looking for easy access to cash from ATMs, brokerage, and paying vendors abroad. Total gamechanger.” ATM fees and access to brokerage depend on your plan and eligibility.
Travel
My pick for most trips is the Eagle Creek Stash RFID Passport Wallet. It keeps one passport and daily essentials in a light zip case. Choose the larger Pacsafe if you need room for two passports.
Travel
My pick is the Osprey Daylite Expandable 26+6 for its compact size and extra packing room. Choose the Decathlon rolltop to spend less, or the REI Ruckpack 30 when walks and short hikes shape the trip.
Food & Drink
My first pick for a daily latte is Counter Culture Big Trouble, with its caramel and nutty profile. Choose Hair Bender for dark chocolate and citrus, or Black Cat Classic if you enjoy brighter espresso.
Food & Drink
My first pick is the Hario V60 Plastic 02 for its low cost and simple design. Choose the Chemex for coffee to share, the Kalita Wave for a flat-bed brew, or the Hario Switch to steep before you drain.
From the first cup of coffee to the last swim, find useful ideas for days away and time well spent.
