Safety
Whether you're visiting a safe country or one that is thought to be on the risky side, you should take some necessary precautions. This means thoroughly researching the safety in your destination before you go, which will inform you of "good" and "bad" neighborhoods, whether it's smart to be out after dark, whether your destination has a problem with pickpockets, and the like. This, in turn, will influence where you book your hotel and spend your time.
If you're worried about thieves, follow our 10 tips for carrying money while traveling, including using a dummy wallet and dividing and storing your money and cards in multiple safe spots. In addition,keep your hotel's address private. And, as always, you'll reduce your chance of encountering a problem if you make a conscious effort to blend in with the locals—meaning no fanny packs or white tennis shoes.
Talk to a friend who has visited your destination or check out online forums to get a variety of opinions. Most of all, when visiting a new place, go with an open mind.
