How can I stay healthy when I travel?
If you are traveling overseas and have food allergies, it is a good
idea to be able to say the name of the foods you are allergic to
in the native language of the country you are traveling to.
Learn ahead of time the common diseases of the place you will be
traveling to. Check with your health professional on any shots you
might need before traveling. Make sure to contact your doctor as
early as possible in case certain shots take time to adjust to side
effects.
How can I remain safe while traveling?
Learn the local laws and stick to them.
Dress as conservative as possible or as close to the local social
customs as possible.
Any valuables that you brought with you should be kept in the hotel
safe or, better yet, don't bring them with you.
Don't travel alone
Stay in well lit areas and avoid shady shortcuts.
How can I protect myself from pickpockets?
Stay in well lit areas at all times
Keep your wallet in your front pocket and not the back
