Being secure in your hotel

All of you have probably stayed in a hotel at one time or another. As you know depending on the hotel you're staying at they can be very, very creepy at times. This post just includes a couple of tips when it comes to securing your belongings while traveling.

Obviously, you aren't the only person that holds the key to your hotel room. This means that you can't leave piles of cash and other expensive items such as jewelry and electronics just simply lying around. Another thing to realize is that for a thief--- if they want something, they are going to get it.

The thing is, the hotel is only liable up to a certain amount. This includes whats in the safe. The one thing that I have learned however is that the hotel will generally carry a safe at the front desk and will have insurance on that. This means if you leave the hotel and are not taking items such as passports jewelry cash etc., then most of the time you can leave these behind the front desk.

If you have a laptop or a camera, these are items that you may want to latch on to a secure piece of furniture with a security cable of sorts to make sure that they do not grow any legs and walk away. Laptops are one of the easiest and highest items stolen from hotel rooms.

The other thing to consider is this using some old-fashioned common sense. If the item is just too expensive and you can't bear to live without it, then you should most likely just leave it at home. Now just don't let everyone in the world know that you're going on vacation!
