Is your phone a Sylvia, a Raquel, or a Huawei?

SILVIA

That’s what I’ve named my mobile phone. She’s dependable, I know exactly how she will respond when I need her, and frankly….she can be a bit boring. But she’s a phone not a date for the ball.

But what if she were more like a Francoise or a Raquel, or even a Huawei. Then she’d be incredibly exotic and fun. Instead of black, white or metallic, she’d be blue. Not any blue – SAPPHIRE BLUE. What if instead of charging her overnight, she’d be fresh and ready to go at 47% in only 30 minutes?  What if I wanted to CHANGE mobile companies and take her with me?

YOU CAN

The Huawei Honor 8 unlocked smartphone is Huawei’s newest addition to the Honor smartphone line. For those unfamiliar with unlocked phones they are amazing, not only because you can switch companies and still use them, but for a travel blogger like me, it means that I can pop in an sim card that I buy at the airport in Paris, and have the use of my beautiful phone snapping photos at Le Louvre or while I’m having my favorite Tarte Tartin at Les Philosophes.

Fashionable
