How I Book My Trips – Flights, Hotels & More (with My Favorite Tools)

Planning a trip can feel overwhelming, but over the years, I’ve found a few go-to tools that make everything easier—from flights to hotels to internet connection. Whether I’m traveling from Hawaii to Japan, Korea, or anywhere else, here’s how I plan and book my adventures.

1. Flights – Where I Find the Best Deals

My first step is always checking flights. I usually use Skyscanner or Trip.com to compare different airlines and routes. I love how Skyscanner shows flexible dates so I can find the cheapest options, and Trip.com is super helpful for flights within Asia.

My go-to flight search tools:

[Booking.com]

2. Hotels & Stays – Comfort Meets Convenience

When it comes to accommodation, I mix it up depending on the trip. If I want something cozy and unique, I go with Airbnb. But for short stays or city trips where I want easy check-in and flexibility, I prefer Booking.com or Trip.com for hotels. I always look for places near public transportation and with great reviews.

3. eSIM – Stay Connected Instantly

I always use Holafly eSIM whenever I travel abroad. It’s so easy to set up—I install it before my trip, and I’m connected as soon as I land. No SIM swapping, no pocket Wi-Fi, just smooth internet from the start.

My eSIM tip: Choose unlimited data plans if you use maps, social media, or YouTube a lot!
