Part 7/8:
When it comes to safety, several additional precautions can boost your confidence on your solo journey. Carry a safety device, such as a metal water bottle or a non-lethal deterrent to feel secure. Surrounding yourself with families or children can also create a sense of safety.
Familiarize yourself with the local emergency numbers since they vary by country. Additionally, be careful about the information you share on social media. Delay posting your location in real-time to safeguard your whereabouts from potential threats.
Reliability in transportation is key. Opt for trusted services such as Uber, which have customer service support should issues arise. Always carry emergency cash for unexpected situations; it is wise to keep enough for one day’s expenses.
