Travel Insurance

[Specialist]

Those of you living abroad,or travelling for several months, do you get travel insurance? Where's the best place to get it? Is it worth getting for that peace of mind?

[Peter Harris]

yes, travel insurance is a must. Top of the list are medical expenses and emergency repatriation, lower down comes cover for your personal goods/lost baggage.

I got my travel insurance in the UK from STA travel, but most insurance packages are much of a muchness. You need to check what levels of cover you can have [usually listed and self-explanatory] and what, if any, excess you will have to pay on claims [sometimes less explanatory but quite important].

Good luck on your travels.
