Pack Light 轻装上阵
Your backpack may not seem heavy when you put it on at home, but after six blocks in the tropical sun, you’ll be miserable. Traveling light could even be seen as a safety measure, because you can move more quickly away from danger when you have less to carry.
也许在家里时你的背包看起来并不重，但是在热烈的阳光下行走6个街区后，你就会非常痛苦的。轻装上阵甚至可以让旅行更加安全，让你迅速逃离危险之地
Protect Your Money 保护好你的钱财
Wear a money belt inside your clothes to keep your passport, cards and money supply safe. Before you leave, make sure your ATM cards and credit cards will work in the countries you are visiting — it is easier than traveler’s checks or large wads of cash。
为了确保安全，将你的护照、银行卡和现金放在衣服里面的腰包里。在出发前，还应确认你的银行卡和信用卡在你要去的国家是可以用的。
Make friends 结交朋友
Whether you’re in the market, on a bush taxi or sleeping in a hostel, make friends with the people who live there. Backpacker around the globe have a sort of informal pact; we all watch out for each other.
无论你是在当地市场、合乘计程车、还是在旅社中，你都最好能和当地人成为朋友。全世界的背包客都有一条友好的规矩：我们都会在路上照料彼此。
carry a book 带上一本书
Books are fabulous dinner companions. With a read you can pull out any time, you’re more likely to enjoy your solitude and less likely to feel lonely. Books are also great conversation starters.But don’t fill your backpack with books — they’re heavy and take up valuable space. Instead, carry just one or two, and keep your eye out for opportunities to swap with other travelers.
书籍是晚餐的最佳搭档。你可以用阅读随意消磨时光，也更容易享受一个人独处的时光，不太会感到孤独。书籍同时也是开始交谈的好话题。不过别在背包里装满书——书籍很重，也会占用背包中宝贵的空间。带上一两本就够了，然后在旅途中注意一下有没有机会和其他旅行者换书。
