Tips For Being on intercity Bus Terminal (Be Wary Of Pickpockets)

Terminal is a place where common pickpocketing. Although each terminal vary the condition but it is important to understand the conditions to avoid pickpocketing. I'm just trying to specify what I remember. Hopefully from here my friends found a stance most powerful foam to avoid the long hand.

1. Take time to orientation at the terminal. Easy prey pickpockets

and touts are those who are confused and panicked. Orientation foam dampen both. Because the terminal is equipped rarely decent maps, orientation through non-formal channels. Can stop at the stall, taking turns waiting (friends) who go to the bathroom, sat pretending to read while waiting for friends. If you want to get on the bus tonight, try to ride on his agent. If forced to ride in the terminal (eg, closer to the lodge), do not come tight.

2. Pickpocket rarely work alone. They usually operate in a number of 3-4 people. Way of working in groups is a scary crew bus. Try to ask every bus crew (driver, helper, konduktur), they must have memorized where the vulnerable areas and who the main actors. But yes it was, because of gangs, and always play keroyok, frightened crew on the bus. Finally, as to create conditions for tacit.

3. The bus is empty and too crowded as dangerous! I often ride the bus at the terminal is loaded Tirtonadi 3-4 people on it. If there is considered to be potential prey, gang stalking concerned will pickpockets. Where the relevant sitting, the crowd will be 'surrounded'. One tried to attract attention by dropping money / goods or even offer something. The goal for the attention of the prospective victims split. Once the attention is divided, there is action. After a successful action, the perpetrator is generally silent and cast the result to his friend. Another friend's turn to make veil. The trick foam making noise, shouting or even scold the victim!

4. On the bus is too crowded, we need to be extra vigilant on the way up or down. If the road in front of us blocked / barred person, immediately touched the wallet in your back pocket is still in place! Maybe it's rather difficult to realize the circumstances prevented this, especially if the bus was so crowded .. If we are forced to rise, as it means giving a chance to pickpocket. Proverbial, dance to the drum is beaten enemy.

5. How it works via drag hordes of attention, action, selubungi, among others, encouraged habits of people we are happy to store valuables in your back pocket! In safety, to avoid the danger of a series of stages known to reduce, replace, isolate, remove. Which completely remove it immediately: do not store anything in your back pocket.

6. Bring enough money in your pocket just ahead. By being in the front pocket, money is more easily monitored. It would be better is a closed pocket, inside pocket, or protected. Tell wearing a jacket.

7. Keep valuables in hand luggage (daypack). Handbag should be selected in layers. Had pickpockets use a knife to rip the bag, the deepest layer is still safe / protected. If size is not too large, bag (backpack) foam strapped to her front.

8. Arose as simple as possible (roughly: ngere). This is reversed with 'stocking charm' style politician. We want to show the image that the useless people picked us! Surely what is done (activities) on the bus also supports. Avoid items that invite interest pickpockets like hp, digital camera, tablet pc, gps.

Backpacking on "free" Nature

If you liked the streets but wants a do-it-yourself independent of the type of traveling is the best choice. Only the preparations of the need to set goals to visa matters. Here is the workflow that I normally use :

1. Specify multiple destination options. This option can be a personal ambition or the solicitation of friends. Perform data mining on those places either through books, internet or print magazine. Do not be too confident with the way other people, because the travel is personal. Something that fits our personality.

2. Then determine what we can do there. Going shopping or trekking? want to chill out or Suffering? Sometimes we are tempted to do a lot of activity there. It could be

that you actually collapsed because of exhaustion. Consider the weather, body condition and time available.

3. Observe mode of transportation. It seems important for the independent traveler because obviously you have to set the movement from one location to another. Panteng budget flight if there are special offers. ZUJI even provide personal teacher to monitor the pathways that we seek. Do not hesitate to use public transport like bus or boat. Find fun crammed on a bus or enjoy the scenery along the river.

4. Determining the route. When you are confident then create your own itinerary, can be either round up or loop. Is it clockwise or counterclockwise, even random. This relates to activities and transport leg. Do you need a return ticket or Oneway?

5. Alert to the danger. This is my usual research barengkan with the country of destination. Travel advice from the FCO is a referral to see the local situation. Relation to this is travel insurance and vaccinations. Hazards such as viruses and current terrorist threat to the traveler. If you type 'die hard travelers' make sure you know the enemy before the deal.

6. Check travel documents. See if you need a new passport or visa is required. Asean countries such as Laos and Cambodia still require a visa for Indonesia. Visas can be obtained on arrival (usually at the airport / main entrance) or at the embassy of the country concerned. Some Asian countries require a passport at least 3 months old, was the United States and Europe requires 6 months. Do not forget to bring the old passport, if necessary, make one with a new one.

7. About the inn. For the backpacker who guided the earth is the home and the sky is the roof then this is not the most important thing. Lined hostels, guesthouses jasmine class ready to accommodate on-site activities include helping. The principle is: "Sleeping in any home can go everywhere".

8. Last but not the least: be prepare for the unexpected! Do not expect too big for this trip. Enjoy what it is. Learn about local life, to know the local culture and language. Ok have a nice trip!

Booking Tips Hostels Online Safely

Nowadays many web portals that provide services to book hostels / inns that spans the globe. This website is of a third party or third party that connects consumers (we are the backpackers) by employers hostels. Because we sometimes act as intermediaries are still hesitant to book a room especially if you have to pay a deposit in advance. We also deal with credit card / debit card that is still a scourge for young backpackers, especially those not used.
Here is just sharing the experience of how to book flights via the Internet safely.
1. Use a personal computer that stores your cache and cookies (or even eliminated altogether). Also use a secure Internet network. Do not get used

to doing transactions in the cafe or an open network (wi-fi without a password).

2. Note the website carefully. Is a company that has a good reputation, pembayaraan system that is safe, no contact can be contacted (customer services, email, phone, fax, etc.), Online Policy or Terms and Conditions of the transaction. Usually, this explanation is in About Us or Contact Us
3. Read some reviews on this website in several forums. Do not book just because the display on the website only. Inget: appearance is sometimes deceiving. A secure website that may look simple rather than a website with different views of the flash but there is no guarantee of safety.
4. Usually a good website that gives an indication of payment. One is marked "VeriSign secure site" or use the padlock sign (padlock) in your browser. For Windows Explorer there is usually under complete with IP addresses, while Firefox is usually in the upper right. Padlock sign this means we are entering a secure site area that is experiencing 'encrypt' or data we provide will be encoded. Another sign is adlah IP address begins with "https:// (the 's').
5. Padlock sign is also not a guarantee. Usually to provide additional security for their customers in the form of certification showing the pop-up window (a window separate site). Just click on the padlock to see who guarantee and is registered with the obvious. To be sure see the BROWSER in the frame window (window frame) that shows the website address.
6. When we started booking a good website is to give advance warning. Whether this process will be done internally or through a credit card transaction services provider. Micro-payment system to pay with PayPal or Moneybookers.com is quite safe.
7. Sometimes because of the limited ability of the website, they ask and ask to book online via credit card details by phone. It's also risky. If I could ask them to use the Credit Card Authorization Form. We send a photocopy or scanning colorless credit card (front and rear), with details of the cardholder complete with signatures. Usually this form will ask for the fax to the hostel for the transaction. Transactions by telephone does not have strong evidence whereas with paper documents (fax) we have a hard copy if something goes wrong at a later date.
8. If the transaction is already running, create documentation both electronic or print-outs. A good website will send a transaction confirmation via email or by contact that we provide. Do not forget to save the address and contact the company concerned.
9. For security diligent see a credit card monthly statement. See if the amount you pay as agreed fully with the company name. If an error occurs or in doubt, check with the bank / credit card provider.
10. Store passwords with caution. Do not give to others even though a close friend. If you doubt the security of computer and Internet caches and delete cookies that are stored in the browser.
11. Do not fall for phishing or spam / scam emails. Get used to conduct transactions on the official website. Phishing is a website that invites consumers to enter data like then log-in that eventually exploited by the carpenters phishing / scam.

For example, if there is a major closure at the airport, it would be difficult to plan how much food to prepare and how many staff should be deployed, "said Nigel Summers, director of a consulting firm in the field of hospitality.

He said the success of the transit hotel also depends on the efficiency of the airport, the more efficient an airport transit hotel will become less fit for the airport.

"If it is easy to remove the habit, say in Hong Kong, people may tend to stay at the airport to stop them. But it would be more difficult, in a place like New Delhi, people are more likely to find accommodation at the airport. "

Hotels suitable for transit passengers who are stuck at the airport and are required to wait for the next flight to transit. You may need to wait up to 10 hours at the airport before your next flight is ready.

So the transit hotel is an ideal place to rest, refresh, and enjoy some freshly prepared foods. Even doing spa treatments, which will assist in the prevention of jet lag.
