My experience: I’ve been sick in Thailand, when I came back from KoChang to Bangkok. I spent three days locked in a cheap and dirty backpacker single room, vomiting, with fever and you know what happening to my ass… I really thought I was going to die this time and got really scared that the staff would find me dead on my bed and had to contact my family… finally got better and I still don’t know what happened to me (food poisoning or heat stroke ?).

Conclusion: go to see a doctor and have a travel insurance (nothing new)

Great post guys! It’s such a good reminder that getting sick abroad isn’t the end of the word. I always get sick when I travel and it has never turned me off eating street food, or going off the beaten path. After all, we are not going to find amazing travel experiences sitting in 5 star hotels and eating room service :)

Hey Mike!

Thanks so much for featuring our article this month, we really appreciate it :) We’ve been sick more times than we would like to say while travelling, but we’ve always pulled through! It’s just all part of the adventure.

Cheers!
