Want to go to a new exciting place, but dont have anyone to tag along? There may be times when you have to travel alone in a foreign land. Whether just for fun or on official business, you have to take safety measures. Traveling alone need not be lonely. It could be fun in more ways than one. Dont be reluctant to travel just because your on your own. Just remember these things:
*Plan ahead
Research and read about the place youre heading to. Know wheres the nearest hotel, restaurant, and such. Make reservations too, if possible. That way, your travel is on a good start.
*Take a city map
You better study how to read maps. Needless to say, these can guide you where you are going, especially if its the first time youre going to that place. Relying too much on the cab driver is not a good idea.
*Learn the language
Just study the basics, and the most common things youre likely to ask a local. Learn it before you arrive.
*Hide your valuables
Put your guard up. Dont invite muggers to come and get you. Dont wear too much jewelry outside the streets. Use inexpensive accessories.
*Dress appropriately
Check what the locals...
