living abroad getting through
watching TV
download hola on chrome so you can watch hulu anywhere, and US netflix



getting around
city mapper

i use apple maps for walking around my sister makes fun of me for it but i think it works great


money
any currency app
i use currency shows multiple rates of one price conversation


recommendation
I’ve asked and yelp isn’t commonly used outside the us so you won’t get real recommendations more so people use trip advisor
