A5. I have first aid training especially for work outdoors. I'll always carry a simple first aid kit with me, and a bit more stuff for travelling with #PTTravel

A5. We don’t check for medical info/locations in every city we visit- but maybe 50%? Quite often one of us will note-“oh there’s a hospital/pharmacy/doctor” nearby and we figure we can call hotel front desk to get help if needed if we feel unwell. #pttravel

A5 Close to our regular haunt in Northern France is the regional hospital. Unfortunately it looks like something straight out of a horror film. We always tell Tom he can't be ill or he will end up there. Funny how quickly he feels better #pttravel

A5 It's good to know if where you plan to travel is within your healthcare network. Have a few dollars saved in case you stray and hit big bills. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5. Aside from booking insurance I don’t tend to think about medical facilities until I need them. Spent ages searching every Carrefour and Monoprix in Nice for some Vaseline one winter. #PTTravel

A5 I generally need to know those details for business trips and because my schedule is tight, I have maps in my pack which show hospitals as well as venues I'm working in. It's good to know
