![]() ![]() If you are really paranoid, he can carry a decoy wallet in his back pocket but I've never felt the need. Keep this in a front pocket where it will be harder (but not impossible) to pick. I would suggest your husband get a "front pocket wallet" or a "money clip/card carrier combo" to store the daily cash and plastic cards. Its to be accessed only in private (or unobservable) situations. I am more of the tourist and just in awe of everything I see, my husband not so much, he is hyper aware of people.ĭeep storage such as money belts, hidden pockets, etc. We are more aware, we get on trains and move away from the doors as quickly as possible, we are aware of who is around us and I have no problem saying in my normal speaking voice "watch the girl in the red coat" or whatever. We do not change our habits when we travel as far as how we carry money, I always use a cross body at home. Since we only use the money belt when traveling inter-Europe the passports are never in there, they are accessible to us in my purse and husband in his backpack. The licenses are also used as collateral at some museums for the headphone rentals. We also have our drivers license in our wallets, in case we are unconscious they know who we are (passports stay at the lodgings). My husbands front pocket is deep and goes to about the top of his thigh, and the same side as the wallet pocket is his cross body camera bag, so let them try but there may be an easier target elsewhere. We have traveled all over with this method and have never been pick pocketed. The money belt is usually only worn when we are traveling between cities on trains and planes and husband wears that. We use our Credit card for all bigger meals and entry fees, the cash is for smaller purchases like coffee or ice cream or if we want to buy a souvenir on the street. Daily I put 50 Euros in my wallet with one credit card and one debit card that goes in my cross body purse and hubby puts 50 Euros in his wallet (that also has his debit card) that goes in his front pocket of his pants and the rest stays back at our lodgings and daily we assess how much we need to reload. We take 500 Euros from the ATM at a time and this will last us at least 5 days. ![]()
