      Do you carry the ikea bag inside your backpack along the Camino or donate it at the start?

      Thanks! I’ve not heard of anything like this, so it sounds like research is in order.

      Liddybee reacted to koknesis's post in the thread Bank verification with Spanish SIM with Like Like.
      I use AnonymSMS to rent a private number. With this rented number, I can receive authentication codes securely without needing access to my primary SIM card. This way, when I have the Spanish SIM activated for my local communication needs, I can...

      This post is "essentially" correct but misuses one term. If the bank app used the phone's IP address then it would not work in Spain because in Spain your phone will be on a different (IP) network and so will have a different IP address. It is...

      I once had a real dual Sim phone years ago. It seems few phones have this now. Be careful if they say they do. My current Motorola phone (Android) can accept 2 Sims, BUT, one of the slots has dual purposes. It is also the slot for an SD card. So...

      I bypass these issues by getting a Wise debit card. The Wise card is generally cheaper for currency exchange (that was their original reason for existing) and comes with their own app. The app is not tied to a particular telephone number but...

      @Sandra Wolf Very wise advice (if you’ll pardon the pun!) to remind me that having multiple options is a good thing.
