Did you know that eSIMs are banned in Turkey?

Well, they aren’t technically banned, but the providers that sell eSIMs, especially travel eSIMs, are banned. 

So, what does this mean for you, the consumer? 

With the websites blocked, tourists from around the world, not just Belgium, cannot buy an eSIM after landing in Turkey. They’ll either have to rely on a roaming plan or get a SIM card from a Turkish network operator. They can also buy an eSIM, activate it in their home country and use it in Turkey. 

Answer this question honestly.

Which one would you choose? 

The answer is obvious; it’s the restaurant that your friend suggests. 

There’s a reason for this. 

Suggestions from people you know help in the decision-making process. In the scenario mentioned above, the suggestions come from a source you trust, i.e., your friend, and they have prior experience in the restaurant they’re recommending.

The Bruges streets are full of pralines, handwritten notes, cobbled streets, and quiet canals. Whether you call it Saint Valentin in Wallonia or Valentijnsdag in Flanders, the emotion is the same. Valentine’s Day in Belgium is thoughtful, intimate, and VERY chocolate-dependent.
