Depends on your threat model but since since I think I know what country your are talking about, might be worth taking more precautions:
* burner phone * wiped disposable laptop w Tor etc * trusted VPN (maybe) * bootable linux like TAILS * possibly encryption but frowned upon if not outright illegal in a bunch of countries so would advise against if it makes you more vulnerable on the ground/at the border to additional scrutiny * be cautious w entering passwords on devices Obviously, wifi etc at hotels etc are to be avoided as is talking about anything sensitive or revealing in cabs, public places etc. I personally like a little bug buster for hotel rooms - any suggestions?

You are pretty known as a researcher in the region so would not be surprised if you are a person of interest in certain countries.
