How can others reach me in Europe?
I will be going to Europe (UK, France, Ireland) for 2 months in May. I need to leave an emergency contact number for people in U.S. (my mother is very elderly and not in good health). I will not be on a fixed itinerary. What is the least expensive way to do this? Cell phone? Pager? My cell phone with Verizon is not equipped for Europe. Verizon wants $2.99 per day, $180 for 60 days, to rent me a phone I can use in Europe, might as well buy the thing. Obviously, I'm not up to speed at all on Europe, so would appreciate your advice.
