Each
year, hundreds of thousands of U.S.
citizens travel abroad either for business or pleasure. For most people,
foreign travel is a positive, rewarding experience. For the few who experience
security or safety-related problems, a lack of planning and general awareness
are often contributing factors. Whether you are an experienced or first-time foreign
traveler, you should take your personal safety and security seriously. Good
security habits won't detract from your travel but will instead serve to
enhance it.
