I finally discovered the secret to stress-free navigation in foreign cities
On my recent trip to Tokyo, I downloaded a local transit app (SuicaMobile, to be exact) and it changed everything. Instead of fumbling with paper maps or overpriced tourist guides, I had real-time updates on train schedules and fares. This meant I could explore off-the-beaten-path neighborhoods without worrying about getting lost (which happened to me in Paris last year). I saved so much money on cabs and even found a hidden ramen shop that wasn't in any guidebook. Now, I always research and download relevant apps before any international trip. It's a small step that makes traveling feel more authentic and less daunting, you know?

Did I mention that Sapporo ramen shop not in guidebooks, @barnes.brian, because it was in a basement?
