It is very necessary to hide your valuables when you are on a trip as they might get lost. Passport security socks are a great way to hide your valuables. They are available in all sizes and heights. For cash, passport, keys and other small valuables, a zipped pocket inside you clothes is a great idea.
Make it a point to be friends with the bus drivers around. The public bus drivers can be of great help and provide with better suggestions than the concierges. These bus drivers are familiar with the local customs/secrets and can make your entire vacation a pleasant one.
When you have to travel more than 150 miles from home, it is advisable to have a yearly air medical transport membership. In case you are hospitalized, the expenses of getting you transported to a hospital in your home city might not be paid under your private insurance.
Always use that ATM for withdrawing money which is located outside a bank and also make sure that the bank is open. Incase, your card gets stuck or something else happens, you can always go to the bank and solve it out.
Shopping at your trip, can be really expensive, if you don't act smart! Shopkeepers tend to ask for prices above than the actual price thinking of tourists as unaware of it. Also, if you opt for tour guides/operators, they have deals fixed with the shops for their own commission on whatever items you purchase. They intentionally take you to those shops. So, in order to save your money, be smart, bargain and ask for discounts while shopping. Bargains and discounts, always work effectively.
Remember that in most countries, credit cards are considered as "Live Currency", so do remember to mention them, if asked by the customs officials. This will help you avoid trouble with countries that are strict with the rules of money importation.
Always keep your cash at different places such as in your suitcase, personal pockets, handbags, etc. In this way, even if you get robbed or loose something, you?ll still be left with something to carry on your trip.
