Imagine you are having fun on your trip and then you have an accident (Well nobody wants that, but who knows?) then you will have to pay a lot because you don’t have insurance!So an accident can’t wait until you get back home, but it will need to be handled immediatly to protect a part of yourself.

Then not only are you frustrated that you didn’t have fun, but you are also frustrated that you have to pay for the doctor/medicine cost!

Here is a story happened to myself.

I went to Flagstaff in the northern part of Arizona to see the first snow in my life (I had flown from Thailand and had never ever seen the snow) so I am enjoying the bright, clean, light and cold from the snow very much.

Unfortunately I didn’t buy the travel insurance before the trip and I got some headache and pain focused on my left ear.

During the driving (it’s a one-day roadtrip) it caused my ears to pop a lot, I could say more than 20 times because we drove in to the high pressure (drive to north and cold)

On the way back home, I hurt so much and got sick also. My left ear couldn’t pop anymore so I can’t hear well and I heard myself breathe and chew food so loud.

I had tried so many things and many suggestions, but it didn’t help or even get better. I got better from feeling sick, but my ear was still the same.

I was in that situation for like 2 weeks and I couldn’t get over that sick. Finally I went to see the doctor before my ear got infected and I couldn’t hear anything anymore.

It cost me $200!! I have never paid that much in my life for a doctor visit (not including the medicine)

So If I had insurance I would pay only $10 - $20. I don’t have a choice and I chose my body, not my money.

Now you know that the travel insurance is important!
