You should encrypt your home directory. You can either encrypt the whole partition that hosts the home directory or encrypt only your home directory. There are pro and cons for each of method. If you encrypt the whole partition you will need to reformat the disk. I think you can encrypt your home directory on fly, but never tried it. There are lots of webpages, blogs, etc on the web. Google for "ubuntu encrypt home". A good starting point it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome Regardless which method you use, you need to remember to shutdown the computer completely, not to leave in hibernate mode.
