Be careful when choosing the right country and cultural differences: if you are traveling alone for the first time or are not so familiar with self-help travel, you must carefully choose a country with good public security, such as Thailand, Japan and big cities in Europe and America. Do your homework before you leave, such as traffic, maps, cultural differences, etc. Although you can ask someone if you get lost, if you don't understand the language, everything will become very troublesome. Cultural differences are also details that should be paid attention to when traveling. For example, when you go to Muslim countries, you must pay attention to your clothes and try not to mention words related to pork. In most European and American countries and Japan, tap water can usually be drunk directly, but it cannot be used in Southeast Asia. Even need to buy fully packaged drinking water, which is more secure. Before you travel, you should check the information about the country you want to go to, which is also convenient for you to evaluate whether you like and suit this country. If you travel alone, so can you.

Backup of important documents and emergency calls: When traveling alone, never hold the idea that "I will be fine" or "everything will be fine". You should make full preparations in advance to avoid being at a loss when you really encounter problems. It is suggested that passports, certificates and air tickets should be backed up before the self-help tour, and several headshots can also be prepared. If it is really lost, it should be reissued.

Travel insurance, medical insurance and travel inconvenience insurance: when you are away from home, you always have more peace of mind. If you choose a self-help tour and buy insurance, more people can call for advice. If you really encounter an emergency abroad or need to see a doctor, travel insurance and medical insurance can give you more protection (foreign medical care is not cheap). If you are afraid of baggage loss, flight delay or grounding, Bian Xiao also suggested that you can buy travel inconvenience insurance to find the claim object when baggage is lost or flight delay or grounding. Travel inconvenience insurance will also provide some compensation and even provide an extra night's accommodation.

What should I do if I lose my mobile phone certificate, credit card and luggage? Lost documents: If you lose your international driver's license, passport and other documents, you need to call the police immediately. I will apply for changing my passport at my embassy after obtaining the report certificate from the local police. Mobile phone loss: Mobile phone loss is usually the most common situation. If you lose your mobile phone, you must apply to stop talking first. Some travel inconvenience insurance will also have compensation for lost mobile phones. As long as you have the report certificate of the local police and the serial number of the mobile phone, you can also get the claim. Lost baggage: If the baggage checked by the airline is lost, you can apply for compensation from the airline. The amount of compensation for lost luggage is determined according to the weight of the luggage. Unless the luggage in declare in advance is worth the money, it is possible to get higher compensation. Therefore, it is suggested that if there are high-value items in the luggage, you should declare them to the airline in advance and pay the service fee according to the regulations. If they are lost or damaged, they will be guaranteed. If you have travel inconvenience insurance and your luggage is accidentally lost or stolen during the trip, you can report it to the local police station first, and then apply for insurance claims after obtaining the report certificate. Lost credit card: If the credit card is lost, you should immediately contact the issuing bank to apply for stopping payment or reporting the loss. All banks have an international hotline to handle the loss of credit cards. Please check before you leave and apply for an emergency replacement card or cash advance from the bank.

Eight elements of outbound tourism:
1. Careful travel plan: Make specific plans for time, route and accommodation in advance, and bring guide maps, related maps, bus schedules and necessary luggage.
2, commonly used small medicine bags: take some commonly used medicines when traveling, because it is inevitable to encounter some unexpected situations during travel. If you take a small medicine bag with you, you can be prepared.
3. Pay attention to travel safety: Sometimes, travel will pass through some dangerous areas, such as steep forests, cliffs and deep holes. In these dangerous areas, you should try to travel together and never take risks alone.
4. Be polite: be polite to people at any time and on any occasion, be modest and patient in everything, and consciously abide by public order.
5. Take care of cultural relics: No matter where tourists go, they should consciously take care of cultural relics, flowers and trees in the scenic spot, and don't scribble on the scenic spots and historical sites at will.
6. Respect local customs: China is a multi-ethnic country, and many ethnic minorities have different religious beliefs and customs. As the saying goes, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do". When traveling in ethnic minority areas, we should respect their traditional customs and life taboos, and we should not ignore the customs and hurt their national self-esteem because of carelessness in action.
7. Pay attention to hygiene and health: traveling abroad and tasting famous local dishes and scenic spots is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment of "food culture", but we must pay attention to drinking water hygiene and avoid overeating.
8. Beware of being deceived: At present, a small number of bad guys steal, cheat and rob. Therefore, meet by chance, don't make friends easily, don't reveal "secrets", and prevent being deceived from causing your own economic and property losses.

Health problems during the journey: The first problem of staying healthy during the journey is to always pay attention to food hygiene. Prevent "illness from entering the mouth". Food hygiene during travel should focus on the following aspects:
1. Pay attention to drinking water hygiene: Generally speaking, you can't drink raw water. Boiled water and sterilized tap water are the best drinking water during the journey, followed by mountain spring and deep well water. Rivers, ponds and lakes cannot be drunk raw. When there is no qualified water to drink, you can use melons and fruits instead of water.
2, melons and fruits must be peeled and eaten: melons and fruits are not only contaminated by pesticides, but also contaminated by germs or parasites during picking and selling.
3. Treat every meal with caution: never be hungry. High-end restaurants can generally eat with confidence, food stalls can eat selectively, and stalls or vendors should not eat. Although there are a lot of hungry situations during the trip, the food of the street vendors can't be touched.
4. Learn to identify whether the hygiene of a restaurant is qualified: the general standards for qualification should be: having a hygiene license, clean water, disinfection equipment, fresh food raw materials, no mosquitoes and flies, dust-proof equipment, clean surrounding environment, cashier not touching food, and a certain distance between money and food.
5. Control your diet on the boat or on the plane: when traveling, the digestion process of food will be prolonged and the speed will be slowed down because there is no exercise condition. If you don't control your diet, it will inevitably increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
