Traveling should be easy and enjoyable, and one of the ways to make sure your trip remains fun is
to know exactly how to keep your valuables safe.
If you are traveling alone, distribute (分散) your money through your luggage. Place most of it in
a wallet and put the wallet in your mai
n suitcase or bag. Make a rough estimate of how much money
you will need on the journey, till you reach your destination. Add, say, $100 to that. Place this money
in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket. Spend from this wallet till you get to your destination.
If you are traveling with someone, distribute the money among yourselves.
Instead of wearing your jewelry(珠宝), you can put your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or
bag. DO NOT carry it in your purse; just in case somebody is very quick in stealing your purse; or in
case you misplace your purse. In addition, if you are going to be frequently opening your purse for
things like tickets and phone numbers, what if you accidentally just drop it?
Have you ever seen a mini backpack purse? It looks really fashionable and is very smart. Plus, it's
really convenient to use. The best thing to do is to sling(悬挂) the mini backpack purse in the front, like
a baby carrier. Ther
e are two big advantages to do this: one, your hands remain free to carry your
luggage and ot
her things; and two, your purse is always monitored, and it is just under your nose.
Credit cards are very useful in many ways. But if you misplace your credit card, it is quite easy for
someone else to find it and use it to his/her maximum benefit before you even realize you have lost it!
If you lose cash, you lose only that much cash as you are carrying. But a lost credit card means the
money in your bank account is lost. So always try to use cash instead of credit card while traveling.
