Staying Safe Abroad...

Hey!
Its the weekend! You literally made it through the week - well done :D. After writing my part 1 and part 2 posts on my holiday to Malaga with my friends I realised there are some tips I discovered to be safe abroad for the first time with your friends.

1. Go with friends that you know will look after you in a situation of need:
-I was super ill on holiday and ended up in hospital... if a situation like this occurs (it could happen to anyone) then make sure you go with at least one person who you know will be there for you, and wont be mean or ignore you if you need their help!

2. Be wary on the nights out on the strip:
-If there is one thing I had learnt is that some of the men in Spain can be a little weird, just need to be cautious when out. We got in a few situations where we were followed for the night, or where men would walk over and wouldn't leave you alone, even with the simple act of catching their eye (simply looking around the club) they had a reason to come over. Stay cautious, if they creep you out, say no and walk away with your friends... never alone. Never go anywhere in a place you don't know alone. Tell your friends if you feel uncomfortable and then find a new nightclub. However do not let it ruin your night :)! At the end of the day you're there to have fun!

3. Stay hydrated and make sure you eat:
-The temperate is likely to be a lot hotter than you imagine, so being hydrated is key to staying healthy and feeling less tired. Also if you are out on the strip and drinking a lot of alcohol the simple fact of eating and drinking water will help you recover and make you feel better after a fab night out! (You are then simply ready and healthy for the next night out... well as healthy as you can be on holiday!). Its crazy how drained you can feel if you don't eat for drink properly in hot temperatures.

Of course there are many other tips when going on holiday... making sure you wear sun cream, Make sure you have a safe to lock away important documents and money etc, make sure you have everyone's number, stay out of extremely hot weather if you feel ill, get at least some sleep etc etc.

Thank you so much for reading, and if you are going on any holiday at all I hope you enjoy it! Are there any other tips that you have?

Love
