Any good advice for women traveling alone?

Carry a weapon and know how to use it (that is, unless you're flying, in which case you're pretty much on your own). It needn't be a gun. A knife, short stubby stick, a good Cross pen, a set of keys, a kubotan, an umbrella, lots of these can be great weapons and are perfectly legal to carry. And if you are driving you can hardly go wrong with a 4-point tire iron.





Definitely have a cellphone which is charged and operationa and make sure your car is in tip-top shape if you're driving.





Tell someone responsible when you are leaving, where you are going, and when you plan to arrive. Call someone when you stop for the evening. Let them know what motel you're at. Don't walk alone through dark parking lots. Don't answer the door at the hotel unless you're expecting someone. Call the motel's front desk if in doubt. Get your pizza in the lobby if you're having pizza delivered. Don't flash alot of cash. Pay by credit card where you can. Not only does that let you avoid carrying lots of cash, it leaves a trail if you should run into problems.





Take all your luggage out of your car for the night. Lock the car. Park in a well-lighted area. Good luck and have a safe trip.Any good advice for women traveling alone?
