XCom Global Mobile Hotspot Travels 34,000 Miles Across 32 Countries on Best Life in the World Expedition
San Diego, CA, February 16, 2016 --(PR.com)-- XCom Global, Inc., a leading provider of low cost wireless Internet access rental services for international travelers, announced today that adventure advocate Ben Southall and his wife Sophee successfully travelled 34,000 miles/54,000 kilometers in their Land Rover on overland adventure that started in Singapore and ended in in London.

Their entire trip retraced the original route taken by the first Land Rover overland expedition back in 1955. In all, they visited 32 countries across three continents and stay connected using an XCom Global Mobile Hotpot. “Throughout our Best Life adventure we used the hotspot almost every day to check emails and update our social media channels. Whilst many South East Asian countries offer free Wi-Fi, the quality of the connection and speed of service wasn’t always that great with plenty of other travelers all tapped into the same router,” said Ben Southall, adventure advocate, Best Job in the World island caretaker, Queensland tourism ambassador, blogger, and public speaker. “So we were really happy we had our XCom Global hotspot. It also gave us peace of mind when it came to taking charge of our finances. Knowing that we were the only people on our connection meant we could use our online banking apps to move travel funds around without fear of security issues.”

“These travelers really put our hotpot to the test,” said Seiji Nishimura, Chief Executive Officer, XCom Global, Inc. “We kept them securely connected in 32 countries without incident. Ben told us our service was ‘amazing’ and coming from someone who has seen so much of the world, it is a huge compliment we were able to impress him.”
