Habita hits the Big Apple

Mexico’s chic Grupo Habita now has its first hotel in New York City, over on West 27^th Street between 10^th and 11^th Avenue. Noted for its imaginatively designed lodges, Habita now has beds available in Mexico City, Puebla, Monterrey and along the Caribbean coast. Next up will be a restored viceregal era palace in the Historic Center of Mexico City.

Travel Tips

What to leave behind when traveling abroad

1. Valuable or expensive-looking jewelry

2. Irreplaceable family objects

3. All unnecessary credit cards

4. Your Social Security card, library card and similar items you may routinely cary in your wallet.

5. Leave a copy of your itinerary with family or friends at home in case they need to contact you in an emergency.

6. Make two photocopies of your passport identification page, airline tickets, driver’s license and the credit cards that you plan to bring with you. Leave one photocopy of this data with family or friends at home; pack the other in a place separate from where you carry the originals.

7. Leave a copy of the serial numbers of your travelers’ checks with a friend or relative at home. Carry your copy with you in a separate place and, as you cash the checks, cross them off the list.
