Documents Safety while travel - Passport Holder

That was the time when I was enjoying every moment of trekking in the snow-capped peaks of Suraksan mountains in South Korea. Excitement of the solo trekking continued even on my return. While I was about to call it a day, I noticed something strange about the passport.

It was the time to go into the flashback. To avoid any accidental slipping of passport while trekking, the passport was securely placed in the front pocket of my woollen shirt and there were layers of more warm clothing wrapped around to withstand temperatures up to -16⁰C. Due to rigors of the trekking the heat generated inside the layers of warm clothing, the lamination of the passport had peeled away from the first and last pages of the passport.

All of a sudden the excitement has turned into a probable matter of concern. While returning from South Korea I had to offer unending rounds of explanation at Thailand and New Delhi Airport about my unusual looking passport. Check out the unusual passport:

Somehow immigration officials got convinced by my innocence and I was able to return to my home safely.

Looking back at this incident I was analysing on what I could have done to avoid such a situation. It is pretty obvious and natural that in order to keep identity documents safe we prefer to stuff these inside our pockets. Stuffing in the pockets ensures that we can always feel that passport or other documents are still inside our pockets.

After deliberating on the passport issue, I realised that if I had suitable passport holder…???

On realisation, I started searching for some suitable passport holder. After spending lot of hours on n number of online sites, I finally came across passport holder by Urby. Received the passport holder well placed inside a canvas drawstring pouch and within 2 days of ordering. That is lightning fast delivery, probably the best I ever had for any online ordering.
