Going somewhere? This year, the odds are in your favor for a summer vacation! According to AAA, more than 66% of Americans plan to take a least one trip during the summer travel season, with many planning to travel more than once.
Before you go, there are NINE important things to know in order to keep your home safe and your peace of mind while you are away.
1. Keep your vacation plans off social media
Telling your close friends and family members that you are going out of town is a good idea. However, sharing your plans publicly on social media before or during your trip is a big no-no. Depending on your privacy settings, you could be telling complete strangers about your absence, which could tip off burglars. Save your vacation posts until you’ve returned safely.
