5 Things to Take care of in your world trips
1. Your cell phone and the data you have there are the first target of attack, keep your cell phone with an access password and look for other measures to prevent theft or access to your information, each device has other extra locks that you can do so that in case of theft or loss cannot be accessed, search the internet for tutorials that will help you do it.
2. If you lose your phone and you call or try to contact someone who may have it and they answer a call or WhatsApp, be careful with the information you provide and never, never give them your password that allows them to access your phone and your data. Let your family and friends know that you are fine and that your phone is lost, so that if they receive a call or message from your phone, they know how to act.
3. Avoid to give your phone number to caddies: The Colombian golf courses offers the opportunity to young people from the poor neighborhoods to improve their quality of life, allowing them to receive fees for their work. They receive personal, professional and golf training, but they are not employees of the private clubs, therefore the clubs are not responsible for your safety when carrying out other activities with them or contacting them outside the golf course, it is an unnecessary risk that is preferable to avoid.
4. The girls here are very beautiful, but be careful. Don´t think that you are prettier here or that you have very good luck with the locals, even if they look beautiful you must be careful, many times they are only interested in your money, be careful where they take you, what they give you to drink and always be aware of your safety and the security of your things, do not take too many risks for an instant love.
5. Do not go out wearing expensive jewelry, expensive watches or showing off that you have a lot of money, as you will become a target for criminals. Choose a low profile, try to leave things that could be stolen in your hotel and don't have a lot of money in your pocket.
6. If something happens to you or you see something irregular, please call the emergency line +57 123 or from a cell phone in Colombia, just dial 123 and report, Medellín has one of the most modern security systems in the world, cameras, drones and Police watching 24 hours a day.
