Meg and I have been talking to some of you who are planning to come visit sometime in the next year. We're really looking forward to seeing you and can't wait for you to get here. That being said, I've come up with a list of things you need to do before you get here to make your stay easier.
1. Call your credit card/bank and tell them you're coming.
Let them know when you are coming over so they won't put a hold on your card when it's suddenly used on the other side of the world.
2. Unlock your phone.
If you have an AT&T or T-Mobile phone, go into the store and ask them to unlock it for you. I think they will do this with every phone except the iPhone. When you get here we'll give you a local SIM card that you can use while you're here so you won't have to pay the crazy international fees.
If you have verizon or sprint then your phone will probably not work here, and if it does it will be crazy expensive. Let us know if you need to borrow a phone and we'll see if we can work something out. It might not be the most fashionable of phones, but we'll make sure it works.
3. TBD
I'm sure we'll come up with other things, and we'll let each of you know closer to when you're coming.
