If you ever need to send money abroad and want to save a lot of money while doing so then use THIS link and you get your first transfer for free. No strings attached. Transferwise has saved me hundreds of dollars in fees over the last 5 years of making occasional cross border transfers. (They are also rebranding and are transitioning to their new name: Wise. So I think their branding is going to take a few months before everything will be rebranded with the new name. When I used my first free transfer I kind of wasted it on transferring $10 to test the waters. You could do that if it is the first time that you are considering using anything other than your bank account or Paypal. p.s. Transferwise is MUCH better than PayPal for sending money. MUCH!)
You can read an older post I wrote about my experience with Transferwise HERE.
BONUS:
Awkwards_Travel on Twitch. A young couple, age group mid-20s? Or is it just a single person? I can’t quite work it out. A couple who previously sailed a boat around but now are/is in Thailand? Twitch is completely new to me and I am not sure how to navigate it yet. Give me a couple of days and I’ll be back! New horizons. Thank you to the reddit user who recommend this ‘channel?’. — sorry about the confusion. I am not sure what to make of this. I can’t really find any written information at all.
