[STEP BY STEP] IMPORTING MOVIES 01 OFFLINE FILMS

Netflix and similar services now let you download selected films and TV shows so that you can watch them anywhere. You should do this before you leave for your trip.

02 DON’T STREAM

If you subscribe to services like Apple Music you can download tracks to play without an internet connection. This could also save data roaming fees when abroad.

03 GAMING ON THE GO

Don’t forget to install a few games for those moments when you are unexpectedly delayed. From two minutes to two hours, they can help the time pass very quickly.

04 LIGHT READING

A few eBooks will go a long way on the beach, in the airport or anywhere else when you need some downtime. Kindle and iBooks both work exceptionally well.
