Neck wallet, money belt, undercover money belt and hidden pocket – these are the items the article will dwell upon.
When traveling, we often get in places where there are a lot of people. Airports, train stations and sightseeing attractions are the spots where tourists often become victims of pocket thieves or simply lose money because of their carelessness. Therefore, it is necessary to think in advance about the items, which will keep your money completely safe.
There is one basic rule that must be followed in any case. Money should always be stored by parts, in different places. And in case you get pickpocketed, you should always have some backup. In this article we will talk about different accessories the tourist equipment producers have invented for us.
The items that we describe all have common important features:
- Lightweight and small. They are almost invisible and are comfortable to wear;
- Difficult to notice. Usually you wear them under your clothes and it is extremely hard for another person to guess you have them on;
- Securely attached to or under clothing. Even if someone notices you have them on, it will be almost impossible for them to steal your money or documents.
Now let's describe every item in detail.
Neck wallet
Perhaps the most popular option. The wallet is usually made of tissue and has several departments. In them you can store cash, documents and their copies, cards, etc. Thanks to this divisions, you can sort the documents so that they don't create a mess and can be quickly found when needed.
In one quick movement, you can hide the wallet under your clothes and get it out also easily. Choose a wallet made of soft material, which would feel nice against your skin.
Money belt
It functions like a normal belt. However, inside it has a secret zippered pocket, in which you can store your money. Choose a belt that doesn't not have metal parts, so you won't have to take it off when going through the airport security check.
Undercover money belt
The advantage of undercover money belt is that apart from securely hiding your money and documents, it gives you a quick and easy access to them. Choose belts with several departments to have more order. Typically, the purse has a large department for storing cash and two small ones, for cards and documents.
Hidden pocket
A hidden pocket is safely tied to your belt and hidden under trousers. It's almost impossible to steal money from a hidden pocket.
A tip: when choosing a wallet/purse to store your credit cards, take those with RFID blocking. RFID blocking technology helps protect personal information on Passport/credit cards.
Well, you seem to be well prepared for traveling. Have a safe trip!
