Backpacking trip around the world

[Villy_Won]

Hi everyone! I'm currently planning a year-long backpacking trip around the world and I'm a bit lost when it comes to choosing travel insurance. What are the most important factors I should consider?

Hey! That sounds like an amazing adventure! One of the most important things to consider for such a long trip is extensive medical coverage. This should include things like hospital stays, emergency evacuations, and potentially even repatriation if you get seriously ill or injured.

Adding to what said, since you're traveling for a long period, you should also look for insurance that covers trip interruptions, travel delays, and cancellations. These can be a real headache and financially draining if you're not prepared.

Absolutely! And don't forget about personal liability coverage. This can protect you in case you accidentally injure someone or damage property while you're traveling.
