This is such a vivid way to describe the situation! It really paints a clear picture of how easily someone could lose their belongings without even realizing it.

I can totally relate to this kind of subtle theft, and it’s a good reminder to stay aware, even when you’re in a seemingly relaxed environment.

I also appreciate that you point out it’s not about being overly paranoid, just keeping your "street smarts" active.

Thanks for sharing!
