That's really interesting, because it's getting lost that usually does me in and then I have to turn on the cellular data. I've tried lots of things... taking screen shots of google street maps ahead of time, etc... but something unexpected often defeats me. I'll try it without roaming sometime.

Experiment at home. I just noticed a ‘limited data’ prompt but a coffee search offline when out shopping just now produced a yield, and the blue dot situates me correctly, though of course I have the option of cellular data in my local package. I forgot to check to see if the location dot moves block to block according to my trajectory, but I do distinctly recall it did when offline abroad this winter … most of the time when desired.

I stayed at a airbnb on St. Denis in December. It was nice... in an old converted hotel where all the little cafes, bars and fast food joints are.

Hi guys 

Anyone used Jetpac or Holafly?

Jetpac is a startup with fairly low priced data packages - but with cut price airport lounge access and some other perks. If you were going to buy airport lounge access you’d be saving money buying their cheapest eSIM and not even using it. I’ve ordered one for a forthcoming trip to Asia. Anyone else used or heard of them?

Holafly is another startup which offer daily unlimited data packages. Seems reasonably priced and might use these for my next Brazil trip in February. Anyone else used or heard of them?

cheers
