Travel Tech: JMFONE International Universal Travel Adapter

This might surprise you, but until earlier this year I did not own an international travel adapter. In years past I just sort of always got by. Most of the time when I traveled internationally I stayed at hotels which offered either US power outlets or at least USB outlets. Also, back then, I wasn’t…
Travel Tech: A Few Weeks With Apple AirPods

In mid-March I finally caved. After seeing Apple AirPods literally everywhere I finally decided to buy a set of the truly wireless headphones. Prior to making the purchase I avoided buying AirPods for one simple reason. The standard apple wired headphones fall out of my ears; constantly. I figured since AirPods are the same shape…
Travel Tech: Initial Review – Apple AirPods

As a few of you may remember, earlier this year I had a fairly poor experience with headphones. Specifically, I had a pretty bad experience with the new Bose SoundSport Free headphones. Those headphones were $250 and didn’t quite work as well as I’d hoped. Luckily, after reaching out to Bose, the manufacturer agreed to…
I’m Sorry: My Mobile Passport Failure

Whenever someone asks me about my favorite travel related app I always tell them the same thing; Mobile Passport. What Is Mobile Passport? For those of you who don’t already know, Mobile Passport is a free app which helps to expedite re-entry into the United States. The app is incredibly easy to use and most…
Wow: Bose Sent Me A Soundlink Micro!

My relationship with Bose began way back in 2008. I had just left for college and when I returned home for winter break I discovered a pair of unopened Bose headphones in my dad’s office. He had been given a set as a corporate gift that year and didn’t know what to do with them.…
Returning My Bose SoundSport Free Headphones

I’ve been using Bose headphones for the better part of a decade now. Since my first pair of Bose QC2s I’ve owned the QC15, QC20, QC25, and now QC35 headphones. I’ve also had two sets of Bose SoundSport wired headphones. Overall I just love Bose. While their products are a bit on the pricy side…
Travel Tech: Mobile Passport – My Favorite Travel App

Recently people have begun asking me an odd question. They want to know what travel related mobile app is my favorite? I say this is an odd question because I don’t use many travel apps. Well, I don’t use many travel apps other than those of airlines and hotels. See, for as much as the…
Travel Tech: A Few Weeks With The Bose Soundsport Free Headphones

I’ve had the Bose Soundsport Free headphones for just under a month now and I’ve logged a ton of hours with them. I haven’t used them while working out as much as I should have, but I did get a ton of use from them during my recent around the world mileage run. I have…
Travel Tech: Bose Soundsport Free First Impressions

I’ve been in the market for a new pair of headphones for a while now. I’ve specifically looking for a good pair of wireless headphones ever since Apple dropped the headphone jack on the iPhone 7. The obvious choice is of course the Apple Airpods. While Airpods seem like the best option, I have a…
United Airlines App Now Allows Partner Airline Check-In

While Delta Air Lines definitely has the best mobile app overall, I’d argue Untied’s comes in as a close second. What the app lacks in day of travel functionality, it gains in the booking experience. The United app makes it incredibly easy to book flights. Even better, it’s equally easy to book award flights through…
