Hi all
Just a question about long term visits to Australia.
Our UK house insurance doesnt permit absences of more than two months. Furthermore you are supposed to arrange for someone to pop in at least once a week and turn off gas and electric before you go (including central heating boiler).
So far two months has been (just) long enough, but we are considering taking some longer trips out. We would like to try crossing to China on the trans
Siberian express and on to Singapore to fly from there (have always fancied the TSE and it sounds interesting).
What do other people do about house insurance while they are away? Can anyone recommend a firm that will cover for longer? We dont give a monkeys about our posessions - the most valuable thing in our house is our passports, but we would be a bit concerned if the house burned down or something and the insurance didnt cover it...
