2.Surfshark VPN
When working remote or safely online VPNS are your friends. Another partner of mine is Surfshark. I used their services alot in Turkey unfortunately through political decisions some websites like booking.com isn’t available in that country. With a VPN I am able to bypass the restrictions of the country with a VPN.A VPN like Surfshark works by routing your device's internet connection through your chosen VPNs private server rather than your internet service provider (ISP). By doing so, a VPN changes your visible IP address. A VPN makes it appear as if you're browsing from the VPN server's location instead of your device.
