Travel Insurance

Today Suze and I conveniently sorted out our travel insurance at our university's STA Travel branch.

After asking around about how to go about selecting travel insurance, I came to the conclusion that I'd just go with the simplest and easiest option (the insurance provided by our travel agent). Travelers to the United States of America are required to purchase the highest level of travel insurace cover, eliminating that potentially difficult decision.

The total insurance for the 39 day trip came to $330 which is a small price to pay for the peace of mind that they will repatriate my remains.
