and information about the places of interest you want to visit. Besides, find out as much as you can about the culture there.
? Find out what people usually wear in the area you will visit. Hopefully,
you have similar clothes. You'd better not wear expensive or completely new clothes.
? Go with a group if possible. Being with a group is especially important
if it is your first time to go to a new country. Joining a tour group is a great way because the tour guide will take you to safe areas. Do not go out on your own unless you know the area is safe.

in your back pocket, carry it in your front pocket while you are traveling in an unfamiliar area. Then it would be difficult for thieves to steal your wallet from the front pocket. Put a little cash in your socks or shoes for emergencies (紧急情况).
