How to text friends while backpacking 1 Year, 10 Months ago Karma: 0
I will be beginning a 3 month backpacking trip in a couple of months and need some way to stay in touch with family/friends back home in the US. Any suggestions? Prefer to use text messaging so any known cheap text messaging services would be helpful! thanks!!!

Using a 2 degrees simcard is the cheapest way of doing it.
If you arrive in Auckland, go to the Airways Florist in the arrivals hall of the airport and buy a NZ Holiday card. This provides you with a simcard, 30 minutes free internet and access to a great internet network around the country. It also offers over $2000 worth of offers on backpackers, camper-van hire, activities and attractions. They have some backpacker hostels on their books as well in Auckland.
