What should I pay attention to when traveling abroad?

first, get ready to pack. When traveling abroad, especially to foreign countries, draw up a list early, write down what you want to bring, and then index it according to the map, which can avoid the temporary hurry before departure. If you travel to Southeast Asia, don't forget that it is always summer there. Don't forget to bring your summer clothes. Many of us have stayed in hotels in China and think that foreign hotels have everything, so we don't need to prepare. This is wrong. Most hotels in Southeast Asian countries, no matter how high-grade, don't prepare teeth and slippers for you. Small things can embarrass you if you forget to bring them.

second, it's smart to take the necessary medicines with you, and it's wise to take some necessary medicines with you during the trip. Who can guarantee that he won't get sick during the trip? Once you feel unwell, the small medicine around you can save you from a big emergency. Several medicines are essential for you to pack: Ganmaotong, Chengyunning, Xisimin, Berberine, Band-Aid, etc. Don't forget to bring nitroglycerin for heart patients! In addition, if possible, it is not superfluous to bring a thermometer.

third, understand the folk customs and rules of foreign countries. You can't touch the head of a Thai child, but you can't hold a child in India. Like the rules of these foreign countries, you really should know something when you travel to other countries. Otherwise, people will not stop blaming you because you are a foreigner. For example, before you go to Thailand, you must understand some customs: you should take off your shoes when you enter the temple, and ladies should avoid monks when you see them. When visiting the Grand Palace, ladies should not wear short skirts and sandals. People with bad hygiene habits must be careful, spitting and littering in the streets of Singapore, and high fines will make your head swell.

4. To travel to a country where the language is not fluent, you should get a hotel card. When you arrive at the hotel, you should first get a hotel card at the front desk. Why? It's very useful. The card has the address and telephone number of the hotel. You can show it to the driver and it will save the day immediately. There was a precedent that a guest in Thailand couldn't find a hotel in the middle of the night without a card, and finally he was sad and sent back by a police car. Therefore, although it is small to get the card, it can ensure your travel smoothly.

5. To know the payment situation in the hotel room, what is available and what is not available in the hotel room, you should ask the tour guide to help you say hello first. Some TV programs in the room are paid for, and most of the things in the refrigerator are paid for after use. There is generally no hot water in hotel rooms in Southeast Asia. There are two bottles of mineral water in the refrigerator to quench your thirst. If you don't know, it's also a waste.

6. valuables are stored in the safe at the front desk. when you go out, it is safer to store your valuables in the safe at the front desk of the hotel than in your room. Generally, there is such a safe at the reception desk of a hotel, which can store valuables for guests free of charge. Keep one key from the hotel, and take one for yourself. By the way. Many foreign hotels have regulations. If your valuables are lost in your room, they are not responsible for compensation.

7. Be careful when shopping. Fake and shoddy products are not only available in China. When you shop in some countries in Southeast Asia, you will encounter the same thing. When buying high-value goods such as gold and silver jewelry and gem products, we must not just listen to the promise of refundable and exchangeable merchants. You must think it over before you buy it. Many travel agencies have encountered cases in which they still do something wrong to help customers return goods several times.

8. Take the right amount of money with you. When you go shopping alone abroad, you must take the right amount of money with you. Because most people in China don't use credit cards, traveler's checks and other means of payment, they always take a lot of cash with them. Therefore, some foreign robbers specially rob China people. It's not good to take any money with you. In a city with poor public security in the United States, you should take $2 with you to keep safe.

9. It is very important to choose a travel agency with good service and good reputation, because at present, China citizens generally choose the travel mode of a travel agency team when traveling abroad, so it is very important to find a travel agency with good service and excellent quality.

1. Don't forget your passport and air ticket when you take part in a group tour. The tour leader will keep your passport for you in other countries. But in Hong Kong, maybe "Ashe" (police officer) will check your passport on the street, so you should keep your passport and carry it with you. The air tickets should also be taken care of. If you rush to the airport and suddenly find that you don't have your plane ticket, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh.

Xi. foreign currency exchange. Before leaving the country, you can bring your ID card to the nearest bank that can handle foreign exchange business. Every China resident can buy 5, dollars or other equivalent foreign currency every year. If you want to exchange Australian dollar cash, you'd better make an appointment one day in advance. Please refer to the information given by the bank staff or the bank inquiry hotline for the specific foreign exchange information and business outlets.

Precautions
