So you ask, is traveling dangerous? It is quite

inherent that in any kind of travel that a person

does, danger is always just around the corner yes,

by following simple safety first tips when traveling

especially if you抮e just a student.

As a student traveling far away from home, you have to

consider a lot of precautions like:

?Street crimes may vary in forms but the motive will

still be the same. Even if you came from another

country and have lived your life in a big city, you

will still be startled on how crimes are made in other

places.

?If you came from a small town and it will be your

first time to enter the big city, keep your faith

strong for there are a lot of people living in the

biggest cities with the littlest of hearts and frail

?If you抮e going to some place where people can抰

speak your tongue, you should抳e had even the

slightest background of the place抯 dialect or

language so that you can easily get help.

As you plan your travel, make sure that you are aware

of the different travel warnings and not considering

the places where Americans are not safe to go. You can

town, you have to give a bigger amount. In these

places, your rights can be very thin.

?Pay attention to your luggage. Never let it out of

your sight. There are scenarios that goes 搊ne minute

where poverty is their main problem, it would help at

least 10 families to live through cold nights with
