Insurance - high cost contents
(Preview)
we are full time nomads and have insurance with CIL. I have just got some rather expensive hearing aids but CIL wont cover them. Has anyone who is full time on the road have seperate cover for hearing aids or other high cost items. If so who do you go through or how can you get around this problem
