Rogers Roam Like Home keeps us all connected! #RoamOn #SilvaBulletRV

July 28, 2016 by Wendy S

The #SIlvaBulletRV @ mapsgirl.caSince the end of June, Craig and the girls have been away camping.  I should probably say RVing since my friends like to remind me that camping is supposed to be in a tent.  Either way, I only see them on the weekends.

We have a membership to a campground just across the US border between Lewiston, NY and Lockport, NY. So not only are they away, but they are in another country.

When we first got the membership a few years ago, we would keep in touch with our loved ones using the camp wifi. The campground does their best, but on a busy weekend, getting on the wifi is hard.

Last summer was the first summer that Craig and the girls were away all summer-long. They were gone for 68 days.  Craig can work as long as he has an internet connection and can work from camp.  I only get so many vacation days so I join them on the weekends. 

Sim cards @ mapsgirl.caJuggling SIM cards while going back and forth across the border and trying to get on the camp wifi gets really frustrating.  Before I left I would need to log into the company’s website and add a plan to my account and set it up to start at a certain time. I would get to the Duty Free on the Canadian side, text Craig to let him know where I was, change the SIM card and head across the border.  When I got across and the US signal was picked up, I would then stop and text Craig to let him know where I was.  

This year traveling back and forth across the border is easy!

This year we have Rogers Roam Like Home.  One SIM card, one account and no hassles. 

Rogers @ mapsgirl.caRoam Like HomeTM now includes over 100 destinations around the world, so if you’re on a Share EverythingTM plan like Craig and I are, you can use your phone just like you do at home. If you’re not on a Share Everything plan, check out our Travel Packs, which cover you in over 230 destinations!
Rogers Roam Like Home US @ mapsgirl.ca

It uses the same calling minutes and data plan that we already have with our Share Everything plan, just no scary roaming charges that show up on your next bill.  For $5 per day to a maximum of 10 days per bill, we get to use our phones in the US.   It’s that easy.

Over 100 Destinations!

Rogers Roam Like Home is available in so many places!

Comfort in contact

It truly is comforting knowing that I can keep in contact with Craig and the girls while they are away.  Craig and the girls will share photos on Instagram or Craig will comment on Facebook. The girls and I can text back and forth.  I can’t be there during the week so this helps me make it until the weekends!  

And over the next few weeks, we’ll be able to keep in contact with our families at home when we go on a big road trip!  We’ll be using our Roam Like Home to the fullest extent!

Follow #SilvaBulletRV to see all of our fun adventures!  

We’ll be sharing a lot of great photos of our journey and lots of info about Rogers Roam Like Home.
