Showerthought: Getting a local SIM card in every new country takes WAY too long.

The airport kiosk lines for SIMs are brutal. Spent half my first day in Bangkok just staring at the wall trying to kill time.

Ugh, that sounds awful, @jade271. I just grab an eSIM online now before I even get on the plane. Saves the whole airport wait.

What's the point of landing excited if you're just gonna stand in line for a SIM? I had the same mess in Lisbon last year, wasted a whole afternoon. Makes you want to just use roaming, but that costs too much. It's like every country makes it harder than it needs to be. Seriously, we need a better way to do this.
