One handy tip for travelling.
Before departure scan all documents; passport, driving license, travel tickets, traveler's cheques, credit cards etc and email them to your own Gmail account.
You can then retrieve them nearly instantly anywhere in the world on any computer or smartphone.
Perfect when you lose anything through any circumstances.
...and extremely unsafe. I would recommend a cyberlocker account rather than gmail or yahoo. Much safer
...and you may find authorities will only accept originals.
