Selecting
clothing
o
Avoid flashy clothes that advertise who you are
o
Avoid expensive looking jewelry - it doesn't have to be
expensive just look expensive although even this may draw
attention to you that you don't want
o
Wear shoes that are comfortable to walk in
o
Plan for bad weather ­ It is always going to be wetter than
expected, unseasonably cool and windier than usual!

Try to blend in as best you can ­ those that stand out become
targets
o
Don't wear clothing that makes you stand out and announces
"Here I am. I'm rich. Rob me!"
o
Backpacks and fanny packs scream "tourist" and invite a
criminal to pull or cut the bag off you or slit the bottom and
steal your belongings.
o
Carry all valuables in under clothes body belts
