Lesson learned.

There were people in and out during Fiesta in our house and soon my money was missing. This happened years ago when I went home to my hometown. It was an inside job! Sad, but true.

Therefore, this year I decided to take extra precaution and decide to purchase the Pacsafe Travel Security Backpack. Inside it contained my cameras, Passports, wallet, some valuable items, and travel junks that I usually take with me. I locked it with tamperproof lockable zipper while on planes, buses, ferries, and restaurants. I locked it while not in use or in use. I used the snatch proof anchor lock so it will not walk out the door. This bag is very light and sturdy and it is a backpack or shoulder bag for conveniences.

Losing your Passport(s) is priceless. 

Losing your camera (forget the camera!), which contains your vacation photos and valuable family photos, is priceless.

Losing your important documents is priceless.

Losing your gems is a price you paid for.

Suggested Improvements: 

(1) Options to make it bigger or smaller (width).  Extra materials and zipper attach to the side of the bag to make it larger or smaller will be a fantastic option.  When traveling I tend to buy a lot of stuff along the way.

(2) Snatchproof padded strap.  The padding that is attach to the strap is use for shoulder protection was useless to me. After I adjusted the strap to suit my height (5'1), the buckle blocked the padding's passage.  This prevent me from adjusting the pad up to top of my shoulder. Due to safety protections I could not remove the pad from the strap because it is all bind together. To solve this problem they need to have the buckle smaller in order to pass through the passage way that is being use to attach the pad into the strap or a removable padding will do the trick.   

I agree. This is not 100% safety proof (unthinkable could happen) and it is a bit expensive. Yes, you can buy an alternative for lesser price, but I am here to give you choices. It is available if you want it. 

Now, was it worth the price I paid for? Absolutely! And I had a fantastic time in Bohol.
