Insurance for student exchange to France?
I am going on a student exchange to France for about two and a half months, but my insurance does not cover me if i get sick or hurt over there. Does anyone know of any safe, reliable sites to buy health insurance from for the trip? any info would be helpful. thanks!

Something you definitely need in your documents pouch (leave the purse or wallet at home) is the International Student Identity Card. It gets you tons of great discounts, such as heavily discounted (or sometimes free) admission to museums and cool stuff like climbing the towers of cathedrals. Plus, it also comes with a student health insurance. You can get the ISIC at any STA Travel agency, through their Web site, through a college student travel office, or through www.myisic.com. I loved using the ISIC card when I was young enough to travel with it. It paid for itself in the first two days when I got free admission to two museums and a discount to climb the 366 steps of St. Peter's Church in Munich. What a view!
