That's where Travels of a Migrant comes in - your one-stop travel shop to find out about, well, anywhere and everywhere, ultimately!

Essential Apps
Modern technology has the ability to take so much of the stress of travelling away. Worried about forgetting your passport? There's an app for that. Lost in a foreign city? Well, there's an app for that too. Gone are the days of landing at the airport and, heavens' forbid, actually having to explore a city to see what it has to offer! 😁
Travels of a Migrant users make use of a multitude of different options available both on Android and on iPhone, and we've brought together some of the most popular ones below.
We all know the stress of preparing for travel - "where's my passport!?" when you're in the queue for checking in, anyone?
If this is you, then PackPoint can help. It's a to-do list for pre-departure, if you will, and there's probably dozens of other apps that could do this, but PackPoint uses AI to help determine your packing lists based on where you're going, how long you're going for, what you're planning on doing, and even the weather forecast!
Tripit is great for organising more complex adventures that might take place over a longer period, touching on multiple locations.
It allows you to plan a day-by-day itinerary, with functions to store your accommodation and activity details, as well as pre-planning driving routes, loading your route into Google Maps.
We all know the feeling - off the plane or train in a new City, and what now? Everything is french, and you feel lost.
Citymapper can help. Enter your location, enter your final destination, and it'll come up with the Public transport options available to you (including Scooters & Bikes!) for getting from A to B. Kind of like Google Maps, but with more diversity and an easy-to-use interface.
They're also constantly pushing out improvements, so this is definitely one to have in your app-drawer!
Get your guide is a great alternative to Tripadvisor. If you're looking for activities in the city you're visiting, this brings together multiple offers from different providers to find you the best deal for the activity you're seeking.
Book through the app, and access your tickets directly too.
If you like the outdoors and you're into hiking, walking, or cycling, Gaia GPS is for you.
It provides a variety of options, with the ability to create your own custom routes, generate routes as you move, or view and download routes created by others.
Once on a walk, the map view will give you accurate GPS positioning and progress, making it much harder to get yourself lost in the wilderness!
