[QUOTE="maymaythegreat, post: 1368586, member: 237588"] I traveled to Greece last year and I also brought my iPhone. WhatsApp is a great, easy to use app, for talking to people abroad. I think the biggest thing you have to worry about is carrier charges. In a foreign country, the US cell carrier you have either owns or "borrows" the cell towers in the area so you can use them. (I had no trouble having signal in Greece and I'm on AT&T, but I expect it's pretty normal for every carrier.) I'd talk to Verizon and see what their international plan is. I was gone for 12 days and I told AT&T the exact days I'd need the plan and they gave me the price. Sinve you are going for a semester, it'll probably be pretty reasonably priced. Getting a monthly phone plan in Italy is a really good idea too. I did that when I was in Scotland for three months and still used it in my iPhone (that carrier was O2.) [/QUOTE]
