No film better utilizes Audrey Hepburn’s flighty charm and svelte beauty than this romantic adaptation of Truman Capote’s novella. Hepburn’s urban sophisticate Holly Golightly, an enchanting neurotic living off the gifts of gentlemen, is a bewitching figure in designer dresses and costume jewelry. George Peppard is her upstairs neighbor, a struggling writer and “kept” man financed by a steely older woman (Patricia Neal). His growing friendship with the lonely Holly soon turns to love and threatens the delicate balance of both of their compromised lives. Taking liberties with Capote’s bittersweet story, director Blake Edwards and screenwriter George Axelrod turn

But be Careful http://saveyourhotel.com/enjoy-your-travel-but-be-careful/ http://saveyourhotel.com/enjoy-your-travel-but-be-careful/#comments Fri, 18 May 2012 20:16:21 +0000 admin http://saveyourhotel.com/enjoy-your-travel-but-be-careful/ touristWith the Canadian currency appreciating against the euro, slightly, this should be a good summer to visit Europe, and all official predictions are that more of you will be visiting the “old countries” this year than ever before.

That’s great, but be careful.  It’s not only the hotel owners, and chefs, and tour planners, and car rental companies, and relative who know you’re coming, but so do the thugs, muggers, down-and outers, and so-called “students” who prey on innocent visitors—snatching their purses, wallets, cameras, passports, anything of value.

Peter Tarlow, an international travel security expert recently told a meeting of travel insurers that Europe has become one of the most dangerous places for tourists, partially because tourists don’t expect Europeans to be so crass as to lift their wallets, and partially because tourists insist on looking like tourists—or chickens waiting to be plucked.

Consider that countries like Greece and Spain have more than 20 percent unemployment, which means there are a lot of people—many of them young—with nothing to do, looking for rich Canadians or Americans exploit—by schemes, scams, or outright  physical  muggings.

When people get desperate enough, they will resort to anything to feed their families, or their drug habits, and under those conditions they have little sympathy for foreigners, packed with cash, credit cards, Ipads, and other valuables, to let them get away.

That doesn’t mean you should avoid beautiful cities like Barcelona, or Budapest, or Paris or Milan, but don’t be so obvious about your tourism.  Leave behind any jewelry you couldn’t “live without.” Forget the fanny pack (the easiest target for thieves, according to Tarlow).  Take your wallet out of your hip pocket (it’s like a red bullseye for a pickpocket) and put it in a safer pocket.  Take that big camera hanging from your neck and carry a smaller one where it won’t be so obvious.

And for goodness sake, leave those T shirts proclaiming your national identity at home.  Nothing screams “come and get me” as loudly as an emblem of your country stuck on your chest. National pride is fine, but it doesn’t trump staying safe and healthy.

Try to blend in. Try to act as the natives do. Pick up a local newspaper and stick it in your pocket—even if you can’t read Hungarian. This is not the time for you to stand out in the crowd.

Enjoy your travel. Have a good time.  And don’t be paranoid.  But don’t be stupid either.

Don’t Travel. http://saveyourhotel.com/too-cheap-to-get-a-passport-dont-travel/ http://saveyourhotel.com/too-cheap-to-get-a-passport-dont-travel/#comments Thu, 17 May 2012 14:38:39 +0000 admin http://saveyourhotel.com/too-cheap-to-get-a-passport-dont-travel/ two canadian passportsHow often do people ask me if it’s OK to cross the border into the U.S. with a drivers license (enhanced or not), or a birth certificate, or a provincial health card? Too often, and it’s irritating—because it shows a lack of responsibility.

When you leave the country, you automatically become a visitor in someone else’s country and that gives you the responsibility of being able to prove who you are. The onus is not on them to prove who you are, but it’s on you. And, like it or not, the United States is a foreign country to Canadians.  That doesn’t mean you’re not welcome, you are, but there are certain rules and customs you’re expected to accept.

Crossing borders is becoming more complex as danger in the world intensifies.  Consequently, border agents have a tough job and people who travel without proper identification are only making it tougher.  A properly kept passport not only makes border crossing more efficient, it proves you are considerate enough to pay the money to play by the rules.

If you’re not willing to do that, you’re either cheap or inconsiderate.

A passport costs about $ 100 and it lasts for five years.  That’s $ 20 a year. That’s far less than the price of the baseball or hockey ticket you’re paying for.

In Asia, Europe, South America, Africa, people wouldn’t dream of planning a trip without having passport in hand. It’s part of their DNA.  It’s a source of pride to have one. You don’t have a passport, or in some cases two or three, and you don’t exist.

For too long Canadians have been pampered by being allowed to cross the border and travel throughout the U.S. without so much as a photo ID.  Well those days are over.

When you cross the border into another country, you are a guest. Act like it and pick up on your own responsibilities.

No doubt about it: hotel rooms are hot. The minute you slip the key in the door, you want to strip off your clothes and dive naked between the sheets, whether there’s a lover there to share in the indulgence or not.
