Bring an old book, but not for reading - International travel tip

Many people bring iPods and MP3 players with them when they are traveling internationally. Thieves love to steal them! To deter them, bring a book...
  • First, find an old book or pick one up in a used bookstore.
  • Cut out some of the pages inside the book to make a secret compartment.
  • Insert your valuable into the compartment, and your old book will help to hide your device.
If a thief gets into your belongings while you are away from your room or luggage, there's a good chance they aren't looking for a good book to read!
