Safety Tips For Taking Your First Solo Trip 1. If you stay at a hotel, ensure that you request a room closest to the lobby. I prefer Air B n B, as these are usually private apartments, so it’s less likely that anyone will be accidentally given the same room key as you. Air B n B gives me a privacy feeling. 2. Purchase a door jammer for your hotel room for added protection while you sleep regardless of which accommodation you choose. 3. Never tell anyone you’re alone. Your friends are jet lagged and back at the hotel or, your husband will be arriving tomorrow. 4. Upon booking the accommodation, inquire if the front desk staff is available on the property 24 hours. And if not, what’s the what’s app number in case of an emergency. If you select an Air B n B, upon booking, request the hosts what’s app number immediately. Just in case you lose your key or WiFi doesn’t work, you have a quicker way to reach the host, rather than waiting for them to check the app. .
