You gotta plan ahead: the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B01LZZ6E1G\/cooltools-20\">Eagle Creek All Terrain Money Belt<\/a> ($23). is pretty much exactly what I&#8217;ve always been looking for in a money belt, because it&#8217;s actually a belt. While traveling in Asia for six months, and on trips to Mexico, I&#8217;ve used a standard money &#8220;belt&#8221; that&#8217;s really more of a pouch you tuck into your beltline. You then subsequently appear to have either a distended abdomen or a money belt tucked into your pants, which obviously contradicts the goal: fly under the radar. I can keep my documents and passport safely hidden elsewhere, thanks much. But for carrying cash through pickpockety or banditry-prone places, this belt with a slim, zippered pocket is a real winner. I happened to see it at REI just before I left for a three-week trip to Nicaragua. I did have some trouble getting people to accept my origami-style folded bills (I really loaded up the belt), which is ironic because I didn&#8217;t find a single dry Cordoba in the entire country! Still, from now on, I will always travel with this belt.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Mathew Honan<\/p>\n<p>The Eagle Creek money belt has another great feature &#8212;  the buckle is plastic, unlike many others with metal buckles, so it doesn&#8217;t have to be removed during airport screening. Keeps your cash right where you want it, not on a conveyor belt disappearing into an x-ray machine and not out in the open where someone with a sharp eye might notice it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Evan Marks <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cash stash<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[84],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2611"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2611"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2611\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32201,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2611\/revisions\/32201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2611"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2611"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
