  Staying Safe from Theft
STORE YOUR TRAVEL DOCUMENTS with Lonely Planet's FREE on-line Travel Vault. Storing details of your important documents in the vault is the best option if you travel in a country with easy Internet access. Your password-protected vault is accessible on line at anytime. Create your own vault at www.ekno.lonelyplanet.com.

I created a vault and it is very easy. They even have a service which allows family & friends to leave you e-mail and voice mail at ekno...you can send your friends the instructions from on-site. I have not yet done it, but I imagine you can scan & upload copies of your documents to the vault. Try it, it's great!  Aloha,  Cherry Sciotto of Oahu 12 Oct. 2000

  Jet-Lag
Jet Lag Tip  Veteran traveler, J.P. Gilbert  informed the "Budget Travel Class" how he successfully uses a hormone called Melatonin to combat jet lag. He said he learned about it from a Conde Nest Traveler article—tried it—and it worked. He buys his Melatonin at a health food store. The article he gave to the class, recommends taking 5-10 mg. of Melatonin 30-90 minutes before going to bed on the day of arrival and for as many nights as Jet Lag symptoms exist. The article also recommends you check with your Dr. before taking it (it plays with your pineal gland) —and says it has a mild contraceptive effect on some women   J.P. Gilbert of Kailua.
