I very recently. I went to the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and attended the Woo-ton and outside the city. I love you and have done since then. Why do we need travel insurance? Why do people ignore, or to go abroad without them? Let me begin with a story. A story of survival and fear that my wish never ended without losing medical insurance abroad.

When I was in my late 20's, I decided to go toLondon, England. I like the landscape of this country. I have a friend, my wristwatch and a backpack. We decided one night from London to Scotland backpack. Good idea? We thought so. We decided to avoid the low cost of a night sleeping on the roadside. In a safe place. A corner we could find. We were approached by 5 young / scammers. We were attacked, robbed and beaten a bit '. Fortunately, none of us need to go to the hospital. When I was home I would. By a miracle, a policeofficer was only 20 minutes behind the men and found us. I never got my watch back, but he was able to go on ahead, arrest the men, and retrieve our bags. With my friends passport in it!
