Our phones are utterly amazing and sometimes it is easy to forget that fact. There are like small computers in our pockets which gives us so many new opportunities, the ability to do so many things as well as the chance to improve our lives that many people never even imagined possible. They are calculators, they are games consoles, they are sat navs, they are cameras and they are even more. Of course, this means that we take them everywhere, you never know when you might need your own pocket cinema or have to send a quick message to home. This makes them excellent travel companions and smartphones have changed everything about travel. Not only can they help get us around but they can also serve as our guides, they can help with translations and allow us to find the new coolest places to go. 
It is wonderful what a difference they have made for travellers and with new technology coming to the market which can make travelling even easier there has never been a better time to take a trip. The google pixel buds,
