I tried searching around for this but didn't have much luck finding a straight answer. I am currently backpacking across the globe (using all my free points and miles of course!) and I need to replenish my stock, so I wanted to sign up for another round of credit cards. Is it possible to sign up for US credit card offers while traveling or living abroad? What kind of challenges or problems might I face? I have only been on the road for 3 months, so I still have a US bank account, US Social Security number, US address and phone number, and the like. I also have a VPN incase I need to "pretend" I am still in the US in that regard. Any tips or comments? Thanks!
