Travel Apps


For starters, I've MAXED OUT the memory on my phone. So out of necessity I had to find essential travel apps that were truly worth it to land a spot on my phone. The Convert app will convert currency, temperature, weight, and just about anything else you can possibly think of while traveling. Flight + is a paid app ($1.99) that allows you to organize your itineraries. The app includes a map, real time updates of flight times, gate/terminal info, and seat maps. The app is also compatible with TripIt. 'Trip Wallet' is an expense tracker. MapsWithMe is a free app that works without Wifi, as long as you download the map in advance (Wifi). And of course, Kayak, it's essential to track the price of your flight prior to buying.

Little Lifesavers

I bought the Apple iPad Camera Connecter Kit thinking that it would be convenient to upload pictures to the iPad for viewing. It's been more than just convenient to upload photos, but actually a life saver. While traveling through Southeast Asia, 8gb of memory in my SLR proved to be insufficient. I didn't want to panic, but Sanur (Bali) did not leave me with many options to purchase additional memory cards and I hate the feeling of being unprepared during a trip. In came the Camera Connector Kit to the rescue! I uploaded a few hundred photos to my iPad and cleared out 3gb on my memory card. It saved me from having to delete photos or have to reconsider every shot. I don't think it's ever possible to just take one shot of the perfect picture. That's $29 well spent!
