An Indian contact on zoom asked me, "What about safety when travelling in Europe?".I replied:
First check weather and clothing. You want to proect yourself against sun and insects in the topoics, and summer. I always travel with a protective hat which has a brim, neck covering.
You also need some way to prevent a hat or cap falling off when you or I look down. You might look down over a cliff path, or above a well. Your hat could get caught by a gust of wind by the sea in a sea breeze, or on a boat.
1 What precautions should he take?
2 Will a foreigner be safe, acceptable?.
3 Any other advice?
1 Dress for the weather. Carry clothes for all weathers. You might change your route Secure hats so they don't fly off in the breeze, such as when in a rickshaw, in Cambodia. Secure spectacles with chains.
2 Take out travel and sports insurance with 24 hour hotlines for emergencies.
3 Find some local organization with connections to your work or hobby. Find out if there is a conference. They may have excursion in a group, or for spouses.
You could offer to speak, in which case you might get free entry fee, accommodation, meals, drinks, a welcome dinner,
Clothing with extra pockets is also handy if you want too be hands free when climbing over rocks on a hike, no handbag needed.
Security Clothes
Double pockets are handy. Make sure all your pockets have closures such as zips.
