Now that so many of us have become accustomed to doing Zoom calls in place of in-person meetings, here are some other services you’ll need to check out before getting back on the road.

There’s Houseparty, a service that lets your friends drop by on your video calls.

Cisco Webex is for the bigger calls — up to 100 people at a time. Meeting times are unlimited and so is private text messaging.

Google Duo has reliable video feeds and you can even leave pre-recorded video messages.

Last but not least, there’s Skype. It’s especially good for traveling abroad because it can translate 10 languages in real time.

But of course, let’s not forget that one of the compelling reasons for travel anywhere is the in-person conversations.
