Safe Travel
+ Travel Insurance
Seriously, no-one can see into the future, particularly when you travel and staying safe while travelling abroad is one thing you should consider before you leave. The posts on this page are all about safe travel. I cannot guarantee your safety abroad, but there are things you can do to keep yourself safe. And take out travel insurance to cover you for any mishaps, illness or accidents you might get.
🏆 There are a number of companies where you can purchase travel insurance, I have used and recommend two companies to purchase travel insurance from:
- World Nomads – for general travel insurance that also covers loss of luggage and for adventure sport lovers wanting to do scuba diving, sky diving, etc.
- SafetyWing – for digital nomads and long-term travellers who need health insurance and long-term travel insurance.
Please note: I have joined affiliate programs and if you click through and purchase travel insurance I will receive a commission at no extra cost to you.
