I got tired of getting ripped off when I traveled.
So I built something better. Here's the real story behind Vaya Con Data — no corporate fluff, no BS.
🌍 Every trip, same headache.
I travel a lot. Europe, Latin America, wherever the wind takes me. And every single time, the same story: land at the airport, need data right now, and every option in front of me is a scam.
$10/day roaming from your carrier — like they're doing you a favor. Tourist SIMs that give you 2GB and call it "unlimited." Airport kiosks charging triple because they know you're desperate. It's a racket, and we all just accept it because what else are you gonna do?
That's not some rare story. That's every traveler's experience. And honestly? It pissed me off.
💡 The moment it clicked.
On a trip through Spain in 2024, I picked up an Orange eSIM from a local shop. 100GB. Full 5G speed. Hotspot included. A real French phone number for calls and SMS. Cost me about €30. It worked flawlessly — better than anything I'd ever used before.
And then it hit me: why isn't this available to everyone, anywhere, instantly? Why do travelers still land with no data, or pay insane prices for garbage service, when a solution this good exists?
The answer was simple: because the big players make too much money on the old broken system. Roaming fees are a cash cow. And nobody was fighting back hard enough.
🎯 What I actually care about.
This isn't some MBA spreadsheet business. Here's what drives every decision:
You keep your money.
I price this to be a steal compared to roaming. $15 for 10GB vs $100 for scraps? Not even a question.
Lots of data. Real data.
No throttling, no "unlimited" that slows to nothing after 2GB. You get what you paid for, on the best network in Europe.
It should just work.
Land, scan a QR code, and you're online. No stores. No waiting. No tiny plastic SIM trays on a plane tray table.
Built by a traveler, for travelers.
I'm not some telecom executive. I'm a guy who needs solid internet when I'm lost in Barcelona at 11pm. I build what I'd want to use.
🙏 The name means something.
"Vaya con Dios" — go with God. It's what my family would say when someone was heading out on a journey. A blessing. A wish that the road treats you well.
In today's world, what's the one thing you actually need to go anywhere confidently? Data. Maps when you're lost. Translations when you're stuck. Reservations, ride shares, staying in touch with people you care about. Your phone working is the difference between a great trip and a stressful one.
Vaya Con Data. Go with data. Go confidently. Go without worrying about your bill.
