For two years, the crew of the Vagabundus Project traveled to over twenty countries. They went through life wanting to explore the deepest aspects of adventure they could find. After selling every belonging, they could either stop and rebuild an established life or follow the rabbit hole deeper.
The Vagabundus crew realized some life essentials they’d rid their lives of might actually be useful once again. The first of these possessions was a smartphone. After a year of being without one, they picked up an old iPhone and set out trying to rejoin the cellular community. One of the first apps they downloaded was Truecaller.

Before they sold everything to gather money for traveling, they had secure numbers they rarely let out to strangers. However, after they picked up “pay as you go numbers,” they found themselves getting calls from random numbers constantly while traveling from country to country. Many of these phone calls were from unwanted callers just trying to sell or conduct surveys. Not used to the hassle of unwanted calls and still reluctantly getting back into the cell phone lifestyle, they quickly adopted Truecaller as their first line of defense from nuisance calls.

Now, a year later, they have been spreading the word about Truecaller to and their vagabond friends, and have been convinced that Truecaller is a must when you are traveling to new regions and unsure of the numbers you must exchange.
With a unique vagabond lifestyle such as this, Truecaller is proud to have the Vagabundus crew as part of their Truecrew Brand Ambassadors. Amongst their travels, traveling as Brand Ambassadors can easily discover different cultural environments both culinary and technically. The Vagabudnus Project would not have been able to get their show together without the fantastic support that Truecaller provides by helping them manage their networks and contacts, without being constantly distracted by multiple phone calls a week (If not daily!) that rang on their changing numbers.

The team of Vagabundus Projects is excited to go forth into foreign countries with their cell phones equipped with knowing that their numbers will stay protected from undesired phone calls. It will be very helpful that they can cross check numbers before moving on to another unknown region.
