- Make sure that your passport isn't going to expire within 6 months
of your departure date, otherwise
you might not be admitted into the EU.
- Make two copies of your passport. Leave one at home easily accessible
to your emergency contact, and take
the other one with you. Keep that copy in an entirely different spot from where you
are keeping your passport.
- Bring a second form of identification
as backup, such as your driver's license or birth certificate, and make
two copies of it as well. Keep those copies in the same places you are
keeping your passport copies. Store your second form of
identification away from your passport and all the copies.
- Make copies of your travelers checks'
serial numbers and of your debit/credit cards. Hide these well,
and do not write down your pin number.
- If you require prescription drugs, 'you must carry both a copy of the
prescriptions themselves and a note from a doctor, especially at border
crossings. While traveling, keep all medication with you in your carry-on
luggage.' (Let's Go Europe 2006)
- We recommend buying some sort of
traveler's insurance in case of an accident or emergency back home or
abroad. Your medical insurance may already cover any medical costs
while traveling. As well, the ISIC provides a basic insurance packet for US card members.
- Write your emergency contact information inside your passport, as well as any
allergies and medical conditions you have, your blood type, and any important
medical history.
- Update your personal information (name, telephone #, home address) on your backpack and daypack, in case the item gets
lost.
