Risks Of Traveling
We, at Chief Chicago Limo have some tips for you to avoid the risks of traveling and stay healthy and safe. Some of the risks of traveling are- illnesses, crime, scams, etc. However, this is not a reason not to travel. Instead, travelers should prepare well before they start a journey.
Tips For Safe And Healthy Travel
Diseases
While traveling, you are exposed to germs from all over the world. The most frequently touched surfaces are your biggest enemy. Although you cannot avoid airplane seats, toilet surfaces, bags at the airports, door handles, you can still be germ-free. Carry a small hand sanitizer with you and use every time before you touch your face.
Another important thing is to check if any vaccines are required or recommended for the country of your interest.
Avoid drinking tap water during your visit in another city or country. The local tap water may not be accepted well by your body. Bottled water is the best choice you can get. Read and learn about the local food you will consume in a different country. Some spices may not be tolerated by your stomach and you may end up ruining your trip.
Transportation Scams
You may pay a fortune if local drivers find out that you are not one of them. Book a top rated limo service with great reviews or recommended by your close circle. Avoid using public transportation, taxis or ride share. These vehicles are not always cleaned after every ride and you may get into contact with the previous passengers’ germs. A high quality limo service requires its chauffeurs to clean and prepare their vehicles for the next ride with great care.
Crime
Learn about the area you are visiting. Every city has its bad, no go zones. Even Chicago has one, actually a few. Don’t walk by yourself at night and do not try to explore areas you are not familiar with.Keep an eye on your belongings.
Do not accept items from strangers and check your luggage one more time before leaving a country so it does not turn out that someone tossed an illegal item in your bag. Mules are still popular nowadays and we don’t want you end up imprisoned far away from home.
Learn about the local laws too. What can you bring in the country? Aspirin might be ok in Europe but it’s illegal in USA. Can you smoke outside, can you drink in public, can you have a knife with you, what are the speeding limits etc. Not knowing is not an excuse.
Have the local 911 number available to you at any time. When you enter or stay in a building, quickly get familiar with the Emergency Exitsand the evacuation plan. Don’t accept drinks from strangers in bars or restaurants- you don’t know what’s inside. Human trafficking and donors black market are still at their highest levels.
