By use case
Choosing an eSIM for working holiday
On a working holiday you'll use a lot of data for job and housing hunts. Start with an eSIM, then move to a local plan once you're settled.
How much data you need
Job sites, maps and messaging use more data, so a larger or unlimited plan is recommended.
A rough guide; actual use varies by app and behavior.
What to look for
- Secure data for job and housing hunting on arrival
- Usage is unpredictable—choose generous data
- Use it as a bridge until a local contract
