Travel Insurance
Travel Insurance provides some safety and peace of mind when travelling, touring, voyaging, adventuring, or just going on holiday. If you come a cropper while a long way from home, the insurance company helps you out. It's especially important to think about travel insurance in advance before travelling and to take it seriously, especially if you normally live in a cushy country where state provision of insurance (funded by tax) is an assumption in life while at home.
The solution is simple: Get some travel insurance before you travel. It's less expensive than might be assumed, because travelling is much safer than most people might guess, and travel insurance companies can spread the risk so it's fair to everyone.

Travel insurance can insure you against your luggage getting lost but more notably it can insure you against ill health or accident while you are travelling.
It's worth knowing that car breakdown recovery is a type of travel insurance, where hopefully you never need to claim, but, if the motor conks out miles from anywhere, you'll be glad you had your rescue available.
