2.Below are some tips for women traveling alone.Exercise hotel safety
There are many ways you can make a solo stay at a hotel safer.At cheek-in,you might consider asking for a room near the elevator so you won't need to walk down long,potentially ill-lit hallways to reach your room.When filling out guest registration forms,consider using your first initial instead of your name,and skip the"Mrs/Miss/Mr"check box.Additionally,make sure the clerk writes down your room number instead of saying it out loud.This will prevent anyone nearby from knowing where to find you later.
Arrive during the day
Arrive in new cities during the day.Areas around bus and train stations can be scary and/ojr deserted,and small towns tend to shut down early.Veteran solo traveler Mara Rothman of San Francisco notes that plenty of beautiful towns can appear mysterious at night,and locals who are genuinely trying to help you can appear unnecessarily threatening.Arriving during the day means you'll be able to find a place to stay and get to know where you are before dark.
Keep your documents safe
If you choose to wear a money belt,use it for storage and not as a purse.Constantly reaching under your shirt for money draws attention to it,and tends to defeat the purpose.Instead,keep your passport,extra stores of money,and other important documents well hidden,and use a bag or purse for carrying daily spending money.
Dress appropriately
To avoid attracting unwanted attention,dress as conservatively as the women you see around you.This doesn't necessarily mean wearing the traditional dress,as that can sometimes have the opposite result.A good rule of thumb is to dress modestly.Think knee-length or longer skirts.Bare arms,shoulders,and legs are considered risked in some countries,so do the research before you go and once you're there.Note which body parts the local women cover and do the same.
Know when to make friends
Traveling alone doesn't always mean being alone.There are plenty of situations in which seeking out company can make for a safer and more enjoyable experience.Smaller hotels and hostels are great places to find like-minded travelers to explore new places with.In some countries,there are women-only sections in trains and women's waiting rooms at train stations.Sticking close to families on public transportation and in unfamiliar public markets and bazaars is another technique some women use.
Show confidence to a great extent
Whether you're on a street at home or 7,000miles away,walking confidently and with direction is an effective technique for deterring unwanted attention,since appearing lost or confused can make you weak and easily damaged.If you are lost,walk into a shop or restaurant and ask for directions there.Try to avoid obviously looking at maps while you're in the street.Study your route before you go,or find one of those wallet-sized maps that you can carefully palm and refer to secretly.4
Use common sense
Using common sense is perhaps the single best tip for staying safe and having a good time while you,re traveling alone.This category includes the usual recommendations:don't walk around late at night,don't drink with strange men,don't ride in empty compartments on trains,don't compromise safety to save a few bucks on a hotel or transportation,and know how to use a pay phone.
