Hello guys,

So I am traveling to Asia soon, I want to visit a couple of countries in the next few months and live there, however my biggest worry is ofc safety.

For those with experience, please give advice.

I have backed up and secured everything back home and stored it in a really really safe space that no one can find or access except me. However, I heard that it is dangerous to connect on an Internet that is not on your name. I will be staying in an apartment complex, but they offer the Internet from what I read. Same goes with phone, I heard that it can get hacked and 2fa could get accessed if connected on a network that is hacked.

In general give some advice, I would appreciate  that.


I remember a accident with my friend, he was travelling overseas and he had to do a transaction urgently so, while traveling he used public WiFi to access his coins and next he knew his coins were gone. My advice move it to a paper wallet and don't touch it till you're back. Do not speak about Bitcoins to anyone on the trip. Avoid cashing your bitcoin anytime on your trip no matter what happens.
