Used my credit card.
Took 4 years to pay it off.

Tourists in Panama get 30 days of free medical insurance/care, and they give you a little info brochure upon arrival -- and you don't even need to pay for a visa. I would reckon that the number of travelers using it is probably pretty low, but I did have a mate that had to pop into the hospital for something small, and sure enough it was free. The locals get kind of upset that foreigners get free medical access while they themselves don't, but tourism and business is important, so I kind of get it.Dahon wrote:I read today that Thailand is considering mandatory travel insurance for tourists (probably a scam since they will probably force You to buy their own insurance at the airport since they will probably not recognize many home insurance policies). Maybe Cambodia should include this in the visa fee. Maybe they need to check people's insurance policy before allowing entry? But I guess this scam will continue anyway.
I once funded my cousin to go to Italy to read poetry. Much better use of money than helping idiots in SEA IMO.
pew, pew, pew, pew!
