yup, no point anyhow humtum food and drink without discretion. down with food poisoning the whole trip is miserable and a waste. for example, don't drink water from a glass in india. better to pay for bottled drink with a screw cap that is sealed.

If you are travelling to an earthquake prone area and would like to take some precautions :

1. Again be familiar with the hotel's escape exits

2. Have your valuables and travel documents by your bedside

3. Have a handy kit containing useful items such as light snacks , water and a torchlight nearby too.

4. Have appropriate clothes and footwear within easy reach too.

5. Draw the curtains closed to prevent injury due to glass shattering.

Feel free to add to this list because I am sure it is not exhaustive.

Useful information. Thanks!
