I'm traveling to Europe for the first time and I need tips on things like documents to bring, safety tips, and what to expect at the border. Can you help me?

1. Bring your passport and a copy of your visa if applicable.
2. Make sure that you have adequate funds for your trip in case you need to access emergency services or make any other unexpected purchases.
3. Research the local laws and customs before you travel so that you can understand how you should behave when interacting with authorities.
4. Consider bringing copies of important documents such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, and medical records.
5. Be aware of your surroundings and stay alert at all times.
6. Have an emergency contact list ready in case of an emergency.
7. Check the website of your destination country's embassy or consulate for more information about the current political climate and safety concerns.
