While traveling abroad, leave a copy of your passport, important documents, and your travel itinerary with a trusted friend or relative.



While traveling in a foreign country always carry your passport on you. Make sure you carry it in a secure pocket.


After checking into a hotel room, step back into the hall and count the number of doors to the fire escape. If there is an emergency and you cannot see due to smoke, you will be able to crawl to your escape route by running your hand down the wall and counting doors as you pass them.


While traveling to foreign countries take ALL the required and suggested shots and medications. Always!


When entering a building, always have an escape route planned in case of emergency.
