Preventing Theft
Keep your valuables in three baskets: daypack, money belt and wallet. Lock your daypack to deter people from trying to get in. Thieves want an easy target and would rather go for the unsuspecting and care free traveller than a more precautious one. Money belts help to hide spare cash and copies of your travel documents. If your daypack gets stolen, you still have ways of paying for your room and board as well as providing immigration with your passport and travel info.
