1. Introduction


I have been in 53 countries, out of which 14 (out of 46) are on Robert Pelton’s list of The World’s Most Dangerous Places. In some of these places I have stayed for extended periods of time.

I never encountered any problems with theft or robbery but I recently have found what it means to be robbed. I have analyzed my recent trips and the precautions taken to find if it was bad luck or fault on my part, and I have found that this was overconfidence. I have also found that, unlike me, most people had one or more encounters with theft.

I decided to research the matter to find out what to do in the future to prevent a reoccurrence and how to best behave when it happens. The results of my studies are presented in this booklet in order for you to have maximum protection with minimum disturbance to the goals of your trip.

The information is concise to save your time and the list of necessary actions is the main goal of this information.
