Hi Globelink

I am a British expat and have just come to live in Spain. When I contacted my usual Broker, I was surprised when he told me that he could not renew my Annual Multi Trip travel insurance policy, because I was no longer resident in UK. Then I read an article in The Euro Weekly News about a UK based travel insurer who specialises in proving cover for people living in all EU countries. I visited their website and was surprised to see how reasonable their prices were. I arranged cover online and received my policy instantly. It was very easy.

Types of Danger for travelers or tourists

Traveling abroad you may be faced with a number of dangers both small and big ones.
Here is the list of the most common dangers expecting for tourists:
Ferry Capsize or Sink - Amazon River - Mekong - Philippines
Car Accidents
Ran over by car - (I believe this is most dangerous situation for travelers.)
  • Kidnapped and killed
  • Raped and killed
  • Airplane Crash
  • Bus Crash
  • Train Crash
  • Mugged/Robbed
  • Drugged and Raped/Robbed

TERRORIST ACTS
Terrorists do not distinguish between official and civilian targets, although this type of danger is probably the smallest worry for travelers, you are probably more likely to get hit by lightening, but if you a worried my recommendation is to not drive a rental car, live in 5 Star Hotels, or stay in one place more than three nights, be irregular or unpredictable in your travel, and do not have a translator or guide. Be part of the local population and do not represent western values.
