make sure it is always on the shoulder opposite the traffic.
We see a girl have her shoulder bag snatched by a passing motorbike last week near the memorial site and before Paddy's with lots of people in the street.She tried to chase it but it was too late,it happened so quick that nobody had time to react except the girl who shot off down the road in chase.
Keep you bag on opposite shoulder to the road and walk contraflow to traffic.
This should be done all over the world and not just Bali,Thailand is the worst for bag snatches.
