Moving abroad or slow traveling? Skip the guesswork. This free guide from Philly And The Brain 🧠 collects the apps and services we use in our own life overseas, all in one place with clickable links.

Inside, you'll find tools for:

• Banking, payments and moving money
• Getting around, booking stays and finding things to do
• Keeping your U.S. number, getting data and staying private online
• Chatting with home and translating on the go
• Shopping, air quality and daily life
• Entering Thailand (TDAC and THIM)

Each app comes with a quick note on how we use it, so you know what to download before you land. Many work worldwide, and a few are Thailand specific.
