Unveiling the Fastest eSIM for Travel & Live Streaming in Thailand: It's Not Who You Think!

Thailand's Fastest eSIM or SIM For Travel or Live Streaming: AIS eSIM Takes the Crown

My Thailand and Dubai trip is coming up shortly. As a content creator, staying connected with a reliable and fast internet connection is crucial, especially for live streaming. I was searching for the best travel eSIM or physical SIM, but choosing the right eSIM provider in Thailand can be tricky, especially when companies don't disclose exact speeds.

After a lot of research I found out that AIS, a leading Thai network operator, reigns supreme in terms of internet speed. Their download speed clocks in at an impressive 36.89 Mbps, while the upload speed reaches a staggering 208 Mbps (median speeds). These numbers far surpass competitors like TrueMove H and DTAC, making AIS the clear winner for live streaming bandwidth.

While some providers like Saily and Airalo offer attractive eSIM plans, their actual speeds remain shrouded in secrecy. I contacted both companies directly, but their responses were vague, emphasizing "good speed" and "unlimited maximum speed" without concrete figures.

After digging deeper, I discovered that AIS consistently ranks as the fastest eSIM internet provider in Thailand. Their website proudly displays their position as the 2023 speed champion.

Internet Speed Testing App OoKla confirmed AIS's dominance. Download speeds averaged around 36.89 Mbps, with some users reporting reaching 50 Mbps. Upload speeds, crucial for live streaming, were even more impressive, with a median of 208 Mbps. This blows away the competition, with TrueMove H lagging behind at 20 Mbps and DTAC falling short at 14 Mbps (median speeds).

The good news? AIS offers eSIM plans! This means you can ditch the physical SIM card hassle and enjoy the fastest internet speeds in Thailand for your travels and live streams.

I recommend purchasing your eSIM directly from AIS or other 3rd party providers before your trip to ensure a seamless travel experience.

Brut Classic Aftershave: The Essence of Man Review

One of My Top Favourites in Aftershave, Brut Classic

Brut Aftershave Review

I remember first coming in contact with the scent of Brut when I was little. I fell in love right away, and still today it is one of the best scents I have ever experienced.

Brut Classic boasts a timeless fragrance that has stood the test of time. Think citrusy top notes that invigorate the senses, followed by a hint of aromatic woods that create a distinctively masculine aroma. This isn't an overpowering cologne – it's subtle yet noticeable, perfect for leaving a lasting impression during close encounters.

For generations, Brut has been synonymous with masculine confidence. It's not just about smelling good; it's about embracing the essence of a well-groomed man. Imagine a man who takes pride in his appearance, stepping out with a fresh scent and a sense of polished perfection. Brut Classic aftershave is the secret weapon in achieving that.

Brut Classic goes beyond just smelling great. It's a vital step in your post-shave routine. The formula helps tighten skin and close pores, leaving your face feeling smooth and refreshed after a shave. It's a soothing aftershave that brings much-needed comfort battling those pesky razor bumps.

Brut has been synonymous with masculine excellence for decades, and their Classic Aftershave is a cornerstone of any solid grooming routine. I am so drawn to Brut’s signature scent that there are times when I just open the bottle to smell and it makes me feel better.

However, one drawback which might turn off lots from Brut is the presence of alcohol. While alcohol helps to tighten skin and close pores after shaving, it will also burn your skin slightly and you will get a tingling burning sensation.

Some might enjoy that sudden burning feeling, other may not like it at all. So if you don’t like alcohol in your aftershave, you may want to stay away from Brut Classic Aftershave.

First Look: Chipolo One Point - A Tile Killer for Google Find My Device?

Chipolo One Point Review: What You NEED to Know Before You Buy!

Tired of misplaced keys and lost luggage? The Chipolo One Point aims to be your new travel companion, offering item tracking through Google's Find My Device network. I just got mine after 3 weeks of waiting. Here is what you need to know.

Unboxing and Initial Impressions

The Chipolo One Point arrives in a sleek package with clear instructions. The tracker itself is small, lightweight, and aesthetically pleasing, resembling an Apple AirTag. However, the packaging proved a bit tricky to open smoothly.

Setting Up the Chipolo One Point

The initial setup wasn't as seamless as expected. Pressing the Chipolo did not automatically trigger a pairing with our phone as advertised. It turns out enabling Bluetooth and location permissions with "Allow all the time" access is crucial for the process to work.

The Chipolo App vs. Google Find My Device

Here's a key point: the Chipolo initially struggled to connect directly through Google Find My Device. I downloaded the dedicated Chipolo app to complete the pairing, which then integrated the tracker with Google Find My Device. This step wasn't entirely clear in the instructions.

Success! Tracking with Google Find My Device

Once connected, the Chipolo One Point appeared within the Google Find My Device app. I was able to see its location on a map and even make it play a sound. While I haven't tested long-range tracking yet, the initial setup offers promise.

Future Tests and Conclusion

I’ll be conducting further tests, including tracking the Chipolo One Point in a park and, most importantly, using it to track luggage on an upcoming trip from Toronto to Bangkok. Stay tuned for a follow-up video detailing the experience!

In this first look, the Chipolo One Point shows potential as a reliable tracking solution by leveraging Google's Find My Device network. However, the initial setup process required more troubleshooting than anticipated. We'll keep you updated on its performance in real-world scenarios!

How to Handle Cancelled Flights

Takes These Steps When Your Flights Get Cancelled

Flight cancellations happen more often than we think. Here are some simple strategies to help you deal with flight cancellation should it happen to you.

Contact Airline Immediately – Contact the airline desk at your airport immediately. Everyone on the same flight will be trying to rebook the next flight at the same time, so you have a better chance of success if you act right way. At the same time, call airline customer service while you are waiting for the service desk to resolve the issue. Sometimes calling directly results in faster rebooking. Try contacting them via social media as a last resort.

Travel Insurance – If you have travel insurance, call your travel insurance provider's customer service to understand the specifics of your coverage related to flight cancellations and what you would be required to do on your part.

Airline Compensation and Assistance - Enquire about immediate compensation provided by the airline! Have documentation ready to show. There’s a good chance you are entitled to meal vouchers, food expenses, hotel accommodation, and monetary compensation based on your scenario.

If you are not sure, do some research and have conversations with other stranded passengers. If you are dealing with these issues as a group instead of a single person, the airline will more likely cheap out on entitled compensations.

Bonus Tips – Make the most of your time. Visit shops, restaurants, or airport amenities. Some airports even boast unique attractions like art exhibits, gardens, or observation decks.

Relax, catch up on work, read a book, or simply unwind. If you have free lounge access, visit an airport lounge.

If you are facing a significant delay, inform anyone expecting you at your destination. Adjust accommodations or other travel reservations if necessary.

Remember, a cancelled flight doesn't have to ruin your trip. However, how you handle it may ruin your trip. With a positive outlook and this guide, you can overcome it and everything will be fine.

Why Switch to Double-Edge Safety Razors?

Are Safety Razors Better Than Other Razors?

I had always thought that better technology made razors more efficient and skin friendly, but I was so wrong. I was shocked to find out that this is one of the rare cases where technology has failed to improve the traditional shaving instrument we know as the DE Razor.

What technology has made possible is to let these big corporations that make disposable and cartridge razors make more money by charging ridiculous amounts for them.

If you're looking for an incredibly close shave while minimizing irritation, safety razors might just be the better option from the old days! Here's a brief rundown on why they're the best:

Single, sharp blade - Safety razors use a single, sharp blade that cuts hair cleanly, reducing tugging and irritation.

Cost-effective - Blades for safety razors are affordable, saving you money in the long run compared to cartridges.

Closer shave - The design of safety razors allows for a more precise and closer shave than multi-blade razors.

Less irritation - With proper technique, safety razors cause less irritation and razor burn, making them ideal for sensitive skin.

Environmentally friendly - Safety razors produce minimal waste since only the blade is replaced, unlike disposable razors.

Customizable - You can choose from various safety razors and blades to find the perfect combination for your skin and hair type.

The downside with safety razors I see is that you have to learn how to use it. It’s not like other razors that you can shave without knowing how to and with no experience.

However, once you learn and get used to DE razors, I can tell you that you will never go back to the other razors and regret not using DE razors earlier.
