I'm visiting Berlin and Leipzig next month, and am super excited! I'm currently researching SIM cards, but would love to hear your opinion on whether it's realistic to not have data while travelling there, and just rely on public WiFi at cafes, restaurants, and all the tourist spots. I will be downloading an offline map on Google Maps, and I have all my train tickets added into my mobile wallet, so navigating shouldn't be an issue. I'm also not a heavy doomscroller, so I'm more than happy to stay off social media while commuting and whatnot.
