What Trey says. I go international every couple of months. T-Mobile has free 
texting and data internationally. Works fine for my emailing, what’s apping, 
and google maps needs. Plus I get free WiFi while I’m flying on delta for free 
:). Then I just make WiFi calls from the place I stay and it’s free there. 
Otherwise it’s like 25/c a minute.  Highly recommend t-mob to anybody traveling 
often internationally. A couple of years ago they gave out a summer of free LTE 
speeds while traveling in Europe.
