yeah, yeah, yeah, you bragging post whores...

Well, this is just a thought I throw out. As said, I will be out of town from next week, so I have tried to check up on travel insurances in case I fall down a mountain and needs a hospital plane home or something. We used to get that covered by our health care program for travels within the EU - yes, we did - but not since 2008, like in because we got a right wing government.

I know the mountain is only around 1550 meters high, but still - accidents happen. Just last week a Danish boy of 17 lost his life after his father had his picture taken at the edge of a rock. First the father stood on the rock, and right after the boy stood there to get his photo, when the rock suddenly got loose and the boy slipped backwards and dropped 50 meters or more to the ground. Sadly he died. Myself, I have also got my picture taken like that before, everybody does, so what are the odds?

So I was about to get an annual insurance, when I discovered how expensive that really is. You need it like max 5 weeks out of 52, and they demand a fortune, those greedy bastards, and in most cases you - thank god - don't really need them, so it's easy money for them. So I was wondering if travel insurances to the entire world are expensive in your countries as well?
