— _______. It's really relaxing.

       While travelling, you'll be taking money, license or passport. Or you will buy something expensive to take back home with you and you don't want it to get stolen. Here are some ideas on how to keep your valuables(贵重物品) safe while traveling.

Plan ahead of time

       Think of what you really need and don't need to take on your trip. Only take the valuables that you must have, not just ones that you would like to have.

Carry your valuables on your person

      Something that is small, like cash and credit cards and your passport, can be carried in a money wallet around your neck or in a money belt. This way, your valuables are hidden and right next to you, where you know where they are at all times. Wear clothing that can hide the money belt.

Carry larger valuables in your carry-on bag

       If you can't fit it in your money wallet like some large valuables, you'd better put them somewhere that you will keep touch with them. Your can put them on the plane, so you don't have to worry about the airline losing your bag or someone stealing it from the belt after the flight before you get to it.

Choose a hotel that has the front desk for valuables

       This way, you don't have to worry about housekeeping getting hold of your valuables, or someone stealing your valuables if your room is broken into. If you give the valuables to the front desk to keep for you, choose a time when others are not looking.

There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experiences will make one a better person. 

I remember when I was travelling, I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realise that people are similar in their dreams, hopes and feelings. Enjoy exploring(探索) the different cultures, and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it won't be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas do we find that those stories are sometimes wrong. 

One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can't just send money to these areas and hope that will help them out. The world should get involved (参加) and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore(忽视) this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than his or hers. One can realise that sometimes his or her biggest problems are not that big after all. 

On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and listening to their lives are a great way to spend your time. You will certainly be more confident after having to cope with____problems and make many decisions along the way. 

When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences can make an interesting book to read. It will be filled with all your adventures and special memories. 

Travelling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us are a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place.
