On a more serious note, it is extremely important to be as safe as possible when traveling to a foreign location. The people are different and you’re in a new location so remember to stay attentive to make sure your trip is smooth sailing! Don’t be too nervous and just be very careful and you will be completely fine. Be sure to make sure of these few things though…
- Keep your personal items with you at all times
- Do not let any random person into your hotel/hostel room
- Be sure to know the basics of a foreign language (so that you can minimally communicate)
- Keep emergency contact info handy
