1. Be informed

The first and foremost thing that you should do when you are traveling alone is to understand the place where you are going. It is always better to check for the nearby metros/train stations/bus stops from the place you are staying in case you are using public transport.

2. First aid kit

A first aid kit is a necessary item whether you travel alone or not. This kit can be simply made of several sizes of adhesive bandages, alcohol wipes, antibiotic ointment, antiseptic hand cleanser that might come in use when you are in a situation that demands medical attention.

3. Split your cash

In case you are traveling with a lot of baggage, always split the cash you have. So if one bag goes missing, you have backup money. Remember, it is not the splitting which is important, but remembering where you have kept the split money is more important.

4. Dress accordingly

Depending on the place you are visiting, gather information about what people wear and try to match the dress code to avoid much attention.

5. Night outs

It is always good to enjoy someone’s company during the night, but when you are on your own, keep a count on the drinks you have amidst the new company. Always avoid accepting drinks from strangers.

6. Be discreet

Never divulge any personal information such as your place of stay or the fact that you are traveling alone to someone whom you do not know.

7. Keep your loved ones informed

If there is someone back home who needs to know where you are and who will be interested to know what you are up to, never hesitate to keep them informed about your whereabouts from time to time. If you are going out with a new friend or someone whom you have known for only a little while, keep your people back home informed.
