There is an undeniable charm in exploring unfamiliar places, new cultures and different cuisines. This exposure helps us get a healthier perspective about life, and also become well-rounded. Therefore, it is important to be prepared for any unexpected incidents that might occur during our trips. Here are some apps that will help you:
While travelling, it is important to keep track of every penny you spend; otherwise, there is a good possibility that you might reach home broke. XE helps calculate prices with its currency converter feature, and you can monitor up to 10 currencies simultaneously. Any sudden fluctuation in the markets will also be taken into account. XE’s market analysis feature will let you keep track of the currencies and their rates over the past few days. Apart from this, you can learn a lot about the currencies you are spending by clicking on the app’s currency profile option. When not online, you can download last updated rates and use them while offline. (http://bit.ly/2IqTcsZ)
Exploring new places, while fun, can be unsafe too. To ensure that you are safe, especially if you are travelling alone, this app can be used. It uses voice alarm activation, live streaming and audio and video recording functions to let your guardians know where you are. In case of trouble, the SOS button can be activated by touch or voice, and everything is recorded and sent to your guardians’ phones. The ‘Follow Me’ option allows your friends to track you till you are home, and the free call feature allows you to get out of threatening situations. (http://bit.ly/2Z5kdZ9)
This app gathers information from your Gmail and organises them into individual days. Each day’s itineraries include reservations, suggestions for things to do, restaurants to eat at, and places to visit. The itineraries can be made based on your interests, the places’ accessibility, and time available. The information about the suggested places are also available in the map so that it will be easy for you to make a decision. Google Trips is available offline too.(http://bit.ly/2P0avT0)
