Backpackers Tip: Ask your parents to buy you your phone cards. They will seldom say no as they are usually more nervous than you about leaving home on a backpacking holiday to a strange country. Ordering your international phone card in advance ensures you pay a lot less than you will pay for the same phone card after arriving at your destination.
