Should I bring my laptop?
hey there! I'm going to Europe with a friend for a month starting July 1st. we just graduated high school and want to have an awesome vacation before university starts. I've been to Europe before but my friend hasn't. she's travelled outside the country but never without her parents. Her parents are rather--make that extremely-- worried about our well-being. They've made me promise to e-mail everyday with updates and information. This was no problem because I had planned on bringing my laptop along. But my mom is insisting that I will be beaten and robbed and therefore should not bring my computer. I know that the more I bring the more can be stolen but I think that if I am careful my laptop and I will both return home safe.
Anyone have an opinion? Should I bring my laptop? or should I suck it up and pay for internet cafes?
And if I do bring it, what kind of bag should I carry it in? I'm only allowing myself two bags, my backpack full of clothes/toiletries and another smaller bag for carrying around when I lock up the beast of a backpack.
