Women’s Travel Tips to Take to Heart
 It’s a fact that women need to travel  with a little special care and women, taught to have a care in life in  general, can toss cares to the wind on vacation (like all travelers can)  and lose that finely tuned caution edge that they keep honed on their  own city streets. 
Avoiding Travel Theft
 Thieves often perceive females as easier  targets for theft than men. The most obvious solution is sticking to  the safer parts of town, but you’ll certainly miss adventure if you do.
 
Carry a light
 Consider avoiding deserted streets after  dark; if you can’t, then carry a small, heavy flashlight in your hand.  Be careful on dark streets even if you have a companion 
Watch the crowd
 Some thieves prefer crowded areas – stay  alert in places like bus stations and during street celebrations, where  you’re likely to be jostled .thieves use these circumstances to grab  your stuff. 
Don’t bring the bling
 Avoid ostentatious jewelry; you could be injured if a thief yanks a bracelet from your wrist or a necklace from your throat. 
Let the bag go
 let your bag go and then shout for help  rather than risk assault. Opening your wallet and handing over your  money may be enough for the thief and you can keep your bag — it also  may make a thief think you’re reaching for a weapon. Better to hand over  the bag. 
Dress like a local
 Learn the local dress code as soon as  you arrive; buy appropriate clothing locally if neccesary. In some  countries, typical American young women’s attire like a shirt that shows  your belly may be an offensive slap in the face to local women and an  invitation for a come-on from the men. In Islamic countries, lay aside  your own opinions and wear a head scarf
