Don’t Be so Obvious with Hiding Spots
Hiding your passports in a safe in plain sight is never advisable – under any circumstance. And it is imperative to get creative when considering how to keep valuables like documents safe. You can use a safe to hide your things, but at least get creative where you hide that safe. It should remain out of plain sight.
You can also utilize locations including dirty laundry and the freezer for what you might consider important documents like your social security card while you are away. I know it sounds weird, but who would think to check there in the first place? You can hide things like jewelry inside of hollowed-out books.
