- Keep your wallet in the front pocket. Risk of losing it reduces.
- Don’t keep all the cash at same place. Distribute it in 2–3 parts. Do the same if you have multiple cards. If you lose your bag/purse, you will still have some cash/card left.
- Keep updating your family/friends about your location every few hours. They can find you easily, if something bad happens to you.
- Travel in Local transport as much as possible.You will save upto 80℅ in travelling. While travelling to jaipur, i installed jaipur bus app. It helped me catching correct buses for my route.
- Beware of Auto wale Bhaiyas. Usually they Loot a lot.
- Write down the Name/Landmark of your hotel in a piece of paper. Sometimes be independent of Mobile Phones.
- Also add a contact number of your closest in a paper.
- Don’t forget your earphones.
- In India, use OYO App for hotel bookings. It’s far better and cheaper than the others.
- Don’t feel shame in asking discounts at hotels. You may get it. Not all want to lose customers.(I asked for a discount at a hotel in Jaipur. Paid 700 instead of 900. )
- Download offline maps of your route. You can’t trust Network everywhere.
- Ask for the WiFi password if the hotel have a WiFi. You paid for it. It’s your right.
- Carry ID proof and its scanned copy everywhere.
- Ask for the Hotel Cards and keep it with yourself. Sometimes you may forget the address.
- Carry a Powerbank with you. It helps a lot. Charger won’t help you everywhere.
- Carry a pair of slippers with you. Else you will regret. Shoes may get wet sometimes.
- Feel free to take body wash and Lotion. Its exclusively for you.
