Paying for parking

If you own an Android or Apple smartphone it is now possible to install an App (available from: http://www.parkmobile.com/nl/) which enables you to pay for your parking and have it automatically debited from your bank account. It can also be configured to alert you when the period is about to expire.

Dropbox

I regularly use Dropbox to store my photos and the documents I need whilst on the move.

It's free and if you sign-up using this link: http://db.tt/4GgJudxa I get some more free space as a thank you.
