This lesson is an absolute MUST
for the gap year student who intends to
travel, (or even those who would like to
be more streetwise whilst they are in this
transient time). It is a sobering statistic
but many young people go and do not return,
lost or worse. A worrying and even traumatic
time for parents as they see their youngsters
flee, many for the first time on their own,
and wonder are they equipped to cope with
what can be the unknown and ever changing
state of affairs abroad.
After the years of care, nurturing and
investment her/his achievements and well
being are now well worth the finishing touch
which for very little could be the essence
of their safety and survival.
This time spent is a positive "forewarned
is forearmed" preparation.
Loaded with information about the countries
they may wish to visit (and return).
WE EXPLORE:
How to research your destination i.e. cultural
differences you might have to embrace. Tricky
cities and hot spots to avoid. Health issues,
like immunisations, how to keep healthy
and hopefully acclimatise well with different
diet and weather. Nasty bugs, mites, blood
sucking leeches and parasitic worms –
put you off yet?!! We have an avoid and
action plan. Information about travel clinics
abroad and Medical Advisory Service for
travellers. Water you can't drink and
water you can't swim in. What to take
with you and how to carry it. Security of
your possessions especially your cash, cards
and vital documents. Travelling safely.
How to get help if you need it. Vital contacts,
consuls, and liaising with authorities. Where
to stay and not to. Staying aware and alert.
Treat with sensible caution different ideas,
habits, ethics and cults. Financial tips
– best cash, incentives and insurance
covers. And much more…
A 'prevention is better
than confrontation' approach is again
promoted at all times during this course.
"Welcome
to the real world", which can be as
safe as we can make it, taking precautions
and responsibilities before they are made
unavailable to you.
The practical self defence is very streetwise
and pretty much speaks every language. A
go-anywhere-lesson which you can take everywhere.
DO NOT LEAVE
HOME WITHOUT IT!
