When undertaking a five days, 2500 kilometers trip to Sweden and back a lot of stuff can happen to your gear. That is why we always say: make sure you have a travel insurance. We have had some experiences in the past, from a PC case being bend a little weird to an actual notebook that got stolen at the venue.
Next to a travel insurance you can also help faith a little by packing your gear the right way. Make use of the original boxes if you still have them or use towels to prevent scratches and other damages to your gear. We try to take as much care as possible when we pack the bus itself, but vibration and an eighteen hour drive will do harm if you do not protect your stuff.
In the travel insurance department you’ll have two choices: getting a temporary travel insurance just for the trip itself or getting one that covers you the whole year round. Vendors like FBTO have fast and easy ways to get yourselves insured in matter of minutes and the costs are fairly low, especially compared to replacing your stuff. So get one today and have fun packing up!
See you on Friday!
