Keeping in touch with your friends, family and fellow travellers on gap year travel is easier nowadays than ever before. Communication by letter has now been greatly enhanced by:
The Internet/email
Mobile phones
- some people would never take one!
- they are useful in an emergency
- buy a local sim card
- buy a sim card before you go eg through www.worldsim.com
Normal phones
- think about pre-paid phonecards
- look at charge cards eg www.ekit.com
Web journals
An interactive online journal which allows you to write a diary, upload photos and voice messages, maps your journey, sends safety alerts etc can keep you in touch with friends, families and colleagues as you travel the world. See:
