Hello! I'm planning a backpacking trip through Europe and wondering what specific features I should look for in travel insurance. Any suggestions?

Hi! One key thing to look for is comprehensive medical coverage, especially in countries where healthcare is expensive. Check for policies that include hospital stays, emergency treatments, and medical evacuation.

Also, consider insurance that covers trip cancellations or interruptions. With the unpredictability of travel, it's good to have coverage in case you need to change your plans due to unforeseen circumstances.

Thanks for the tips! Should I also be worried about coverage for personal belongings?

Definitely, Look for a policy that covers theft or damage to personal belongings, particularly if you're carrying valuable items like a camera or smartphone.
