While Travelling :

• Don't over exercise-especially in hot climates.
• Where local tap water is not safe, drink plenty of bottled water (also use this to brush your teeth) and always check the seal on the bottle.
• Avoid ice in cool drinks-freezing preserves germs, it does not kill them.
• Beware of uncooked food including salads and fruit that you cannot peel.
• Include 'rest time' in your travel itinerary.
• Wear comfortable shoes, a hat and sunscreen for sightseeing.
• Dress and behave conservatively, in accordance with local customs and sensitivities.
• Wear a pair of thongs when showering.
• Practise safe sex-HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted disease are widespread in many countries.
