Hey guys,
Im going to Europe for a month next week and I was wondering what you guys used to stay in touch with home while you were there?
I've heard WhatsApp is good but I don't know how it's good for over there.
I've also heard about Kik.
Lemme know what you guys think.

When I was abroad I used Viber for pretty much everything. You can make calls and send texts over WiFi. Skype works well too, WhatsApp is good, but you can only text.
There's also Talkatone which allows you to call any number. So if you're parents have a landline or a non smartphone you can call it rather than having to use the app and be limited to calling only those contacts.
Just download a few of those apps and tell your parents to get at least one.
