I didn't realize it was complicated to travel overseas until I started working on this. I called my cell phone company, and can get a 1-month international plan for $25. Phone calls will be $.99 a minute, incoming texts $.05 and outgoing texts are $.50. As for data, 2 MB is $25.....that's not much. I don't think I will get a data plan, but try to use free wi-fi where ever I can.

Since I will definitely want to be able to change into not-dirty clothes and freshen up some before leaving the airport, the extra hour may give me a chance to rehydrate, wash my face, brush my teeth, change clothes....become human again after a night spent in an airplane seat. I don't mind waiting for someone at the airport. I hate circling the airport waiting for someone to call me, though.
