Then you have a much bigger and immediate problem at hand.

What do you mean?

There's a tourist experiencing this scenario probably every minute.

This is why 1Password provides an emergency kit where you can record your secret key and store it securely.

How you choose to safeguard it depends on your preferences and your "threat level".

For example, you can keep it in a bank vault or print multiple copies to store it under your pillow, taking a picture, or save it in your email, etc.

Not really. The biggest, most immediate and most threatening problem in this scenario, is inability to access your passwords, and therefore inability to use banking and means of electronics communication.
