AVOIDING TRAVEL HASSLES

BY: RAKEL ROMERO PUENTES

TRAVELING….

When you think about traveling you picture all the things you will do for having fun (places to know, parties, met people, try different kinds of food, etc.).

BUT…

• In most of the cases people don’t do a plan to prevent accidents, or hassles that others can cause.

Travel hassles can be:• Thieve stole your things• You lost your personal documents• As you are a tourist some goods and services are

a rip off for you!• If you are having fun…you probably will miss you

flight .

REAL EXPERIENCES

As we were late at the airport because of having fun, we missed our flight.

We got a ripoff on the beach (braids, massages and stuff like that)

A friend of mine decided to speak with estrangers guys…Then she got a big health problem (because of a dangerous drink). Fortunately my other friends and I could rescue her!!!

REACTIONS...

• When something bad happens during your travel you will regret some situations…

- If I were on time at the airport I wouldn’t have missed my flight

- If I weren’t so naive , I wouldn’t have gotten a rip off at the hotel or on the beach.

- If you wouldn’t have received that drink you might not have gotten sick.

- If I had listened my family advices, I wouldn’t have traveled alone to a place I didn’t know about.

TIPS TO AVOID HASSLES DURING YOUR TRAVEL

- Be sure to have a special docu-pocuh. It helps you to have your important documents close at hand.

- Make a hotel reservation before travel to your destiny, and check about the reputation of the hotel.

- Get an insurance, it will be helpful in case you have an accident, or you get stolen.

- Look for information about some customs and culture from the place you are going to visit.
