Traveling Asia and tired of swapping SIM cards? In this video, I share my Asia eSIM review and real travel experience using one international eSIM that works across multiple Asian countries.
With one eSIM, you can stay connected across 34 countries in Asia, with access to data, calls, and texts — no local ID or address required.
If you’re planning a trip through Southeast Asia — or even just one country — this is easily the most convenient and flexible option we’ve found.

If you’re traveling through Southeast Asia and don’t want to keep swapping SIM cards every time you cross a border, Sim Local has been a game-changer for us.
You can get one eSIM that works across 34 countries in Asia, with data, calls, and texts — super easy to set up.

Hey mate. Still loving your vlogs. Just wondering what is the difference between Sim Local and Holafly that you used to use ?
Cheers to you Mandy and Lyla
I was trying to figure out why I wasn’t able to get internet when I used Ubigi eSIM when I traveled from Bali to Vietnam. I purchased it online, downloaded the app, paid and activated it the day before I was to arrive, but wasn’t able to access the internet when in Vietnam. I wasn’t sure if I had done something wrong, possibly selecting the wrong package. That’s the only thing I could think of, or it wasn’t the proper eSIM for the geographic area I was in.
I like eSIMS as well.
Telstra International Roaming is an Absolute RIP OFF.
No, stop
Hello👋😊🥰👍✌️💕💞🩷💖💝🫶
Really love the practical advice You guys give!
Taking notes every time!
Thank You❤
One issue I also have with buying a physicsl sim card is the safety of the transaction.
Strangers fiddling with my phone 😬
In Sri Lanka I had to literally ask for my Estonian sim card to be given back to me as the guy kinda shoved it underneath some papers.
So not doing that again😊
I left Aus to retire in Bali 2 weeks ago and have had one problem after another with my phone. I kept my iPhone from home and paid the tax. Still problems so I purchased an Indonesian physical sim but as you said in this video it is limited. Will I be able to connect to Australia (eg my bank) if I delete my previous eSim and my physical SIM card and just use a travel eSim? I am living here and not travelling or creating content but I need data as on my own and as you said it is so important to access when out and about. I have yet to find anyone who can help me. The Wise card has been awesome though. An absolute saviour. I think you two are legends to do what you are doing. I have learnt so much from you and I thank you wholeheartedly.
!I switched from esim back to physical sim cards. They are so much cheaper. The data volume is much larger. And you can get them everywhere without any problems. This is my experience from Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Vietnam.
Such great sim card info. Especially when travelling through different countries. Thank you!!
