The exact eSIM I use, so I have data the second I land! Don't use that overpriced Holafly crap, use this.
The exact paper-mail solution I use for mail back in the U.S. It's not a PO Box, so you can use it for banks, taxes, legal docs, everything.
The exact Travel Health Insurance I used when I was in Bali, risking my life on motorcycles every day.
The exact Credit Card I use today for groceries, coffees, aibnbs, everything. 2X travel miles and ZERO foreign transaction fees. Pay it off every 2 weeks, and never pay interest charges. I get 1-2 FREE flights each year doing this.
What I used to completely opt-out of credit card junk mail. It really works! I did this right after I set up the iPostal paper-mail box and now I never get junk mail.
