When you wander away,
make visitors wonder who's home

Try not to establish a regular routine and if you go out for a while, leave the TV on and the curtains closed.

• Don't put the sign on the door for the maid to clean up. If your room has been made up before you go out, hang the "do not disturb" sign on the door.
• If you're a devoted runner, check with the front desk or a security guard for a safe course.
• Whenever you go out, tell others in your party where you'll be and when you'll be back.
