Imagine that you’re travelling and your wallet, purse or bag have been stolen or you simply lost them.

• How much would you lose?
• Do you have the phone number to your bank, to call them and ask to block your credit cards?
• Do you have copies of your important documents?
• What actions do you need to take to retrieve your official papers?

In light of this possible scenario, also ask yourself the following questions:

Do you really need to carry with you all the credit cards? What about the official papers, IDs?

Only carry the necessary ones with you. This case, in case you ever lose them or forget them somewhere, you’ll limit the potential loss.

Make sure that you know the answers to these questions, especially if you travel a lot.

Always hope for the best but prepare for the worst. Don’t let unforeseen events catch you off guard.
