Default Travel Insurance

Hey there!

I'm a Canadian (dual citizen UK, if that changes anything), living in France, and heading for Morocco in a couple days. I'm a photography student, so I'm hauling a pretty expensive camera with me. I'm trying to buy travel insurance, but it's kind of a pain in the ass being a Canadian living abroad.

The best/only option I've seen so far is world nomads, but their coverage is a bit on the weak side. They don't offer extra insurance on things like cameras, lenses, etc (or if they do, I haven't been able to find it). Does anyone know of any other places I can buy insurance online, or is world nomads my best bet?

Thanks!
Dana

I'm no expert on travel insurance, but if you're in France (a city?) there should be an STA nearby. They're pretty good, you can go in and tell them your situation exactly and they can help you sort out what you need.
