RE: Backpacking tips from a pro - watch your valuables!

in TravelFeed5 years ago

I learned about all of these when I first got to SEA as a traveler. I was unaware about the baggage handlers on the bus but the person I bought my ticket from, a long-term expat who owned a tour counter, told me about it and told me to buy some small locks for my pack. He also offered zip ties for free if i didn't want to buy the locks

Unfortunately I learned about it from a person that it happened to. He was actually in the process of badmouthing the agent that sold him the ticket on Trip Advisor when I said to him that it wasn't the agent's fault.... find out the name of the bus company instead.
