59 Countries Around The Earth Equals One Heck Of A Journey.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Women often ask how I’ve been able to travel the world so extensively and still remain safe as a female solo traveler. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ Here’s a few of my safety tips below:⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ 1. Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program. This is a FREE service for U.S. Citizens to enroll with the local U.S. Embassy in every single country you visit. Send them a copy of your itinerary prior to arrival and store the U. S. Embassy’s number in your cell before the trip in case of emergency. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ 2. Use ride sharing app whenever possible. No yellow taxi. Why? Because the activity of both you and the driver are being TRACKED. Otherwise, you have no reference info such as name, reviews, or license plate at your fingertips.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ 3. Keep ur stuff in the backseat with you when being driven around. Just in case the driver tries to overcharge or you start feeling uncomfortable, it’s easier to exit the car w/ your belongings.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ 4. Ask your hotel staff or Air B n B host about what the local scams are. In Brazil we were told that kids will ask for $1, and when you pull out your wallet, they will snatch it and pass it off to an adult waiting nearby. I went to Brazil and did not get robbed. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ 5. Have a SOLID method of transportation when visiting another country. Taking the train in Paris is cute, but if you don’t read French, or miss your stop, now you’re lost, you probably look “lost” and now you’re just an easy target. ⠀ ⠀ 6. Have Multiple Forms of Communication with the hotel staff or Air B n B host. Let’s say you lose your key while partying in Madrid, Or let’s say your driver can’t find the address, having an email address won’t help you in that moment. Have another form of communication with hotel staff such as a local number or What’s app. ⠀⠀ If you’re sick of waiting on your friends to travel, click the link in my bio and register for the FREE solo travel masterclass!
