Things that make cross border travel more convenient in the last 5 years

1. E-wallet/ QR local and cross border acceptance

2. E-sim with cheap data roaming validity of more than 1 year like eskimo 

3. Google map that makes driving or taking transport easier to navigate

4. Proliferation of booking app for hotels and activities like agoda, trip or klook 

5. Budget airlines & trains availability

6. E-gate at airport that make immigration clearance so much faster

7. No forex credit card like trust and you trip that reduce the need to carry lots of foreign cash. You can even skip the card if u have apple pay

8. Smart phones which can basically provide entertainment during long train/ bus ride and it will reduce print since most of the information is either in the whatsapp, internet or email


Basically to travel u need data, money and passport
