Heading overseas soon? We will share some of our encounters below, and things to take note of staying safe traveling in Europe, whether you are a solo traveler or in a group.

Always remember to avoid wearing flashy jewelry, holding your camera and smartphone when you are not using it.

Everyone would like to get the perfect picture when traveling or even be amazed at the surroundings, however, when we are distracted, it will be the best chance for pickpockets or scammers. Hence, it will be good to keep a distance from strangers coming near you (It might sound unfriendly but we have to protect ourselves some way or another. Sometimes your 6th sense might work if you feel you are in an unfavorable situation.)

Please be vigilant wherever you are, put in extra effort to stay safe is important.

We also love to hear from you if you have any encounter to share with us.
