You should ensure be aware of the tourism laws and policies about your destination. This will keep you from getting jailed or paying fines.
Have your documents at hand. Since you are travelling to another country, it is important to have your documents ready anytime. Keep digital copies of your passport and other documents. If you lose your passport, it will be much easier to secure a new one from your consulate if you have a copy.
Travel Light. You do not need to carry a lot of stuff when travelling. Take only what you need and essential for the trip. You can always buy what you need when you reach your destination.

However, if you do not know how to do those activities, it will be best to learn them first from professionals. You can get injured if you insist on trying them out without prior knowledge.
Spread your money around. When travelling, it is always advisable to always carry some cash in your pocket. Anyway, you can always take out some cash from the nearest ATM machine than bringing all your money with you. As much as possible, spread your money around. So you can put some in your shoes or socks but not all of them in your wallet or pocket. If the hotel you are staying on has a safe, it is best to keep your money and other valuables there.
Bear in mind that there will always be risk whenever you travel the world. Stay safe and you can look forward to having an enjoyable trip.
