What country will pay for your health care costs if you get sick when travelling?
My parents live in Canada. They were planning on going to Florida for the winter. Recently, my Dad, who has peripheral artery disease had his medication changed. They won’t be travelling to the States now or for the next six months since he can’t get insurance because of the change of medicine.
Is there a country that you can go to and have free health care if something happens. They couldn’t pay for anything serious. I know it is probably unfair to burdon another country to pay for his possible health care problems, but I am worried that if they don’t get away, my Dad will not do any walking at all, which he needs to do to stay healthy. They live out in the country and it’s really not good to walk on the road in the winter. And a gym is 1/2 an hour a way, even if they would go. A treadmill was already tried and unsuccessful.
Thanks if you have any help.
Nope. None. It is too much of a problem. Such a country would be attracting all the sick people from around the world who would all flock there.
And that’s how travel insurance generally is too. It will cover you for any new illness or accidents you have while on vacations, but they never cover preexisting conditions.

What is the best country in Central Europe to live in?
I plan to move to another country in central Europe in the next 7 years and was thinking to which one. What country do you think is the best in central Europe to live in and explain why.
Thank you for your help so much.
All were bad answers.
Thanks for the long answer with Germany. I liked that one for description.
Germany
Germany is s the world’s third largest economy by nominal GDP and the largest exporter of goods in 2007. In absolute terms, Germany allocates the second biggest annual budget of development aid in the world.
Most of Germany has a temperate climate in which humid westerly winds predominate. Winters there are mild and summers tend to be cool, though temperatures can exceed 30 °C (86 °F) for prolonged periods. In the east, the climate is more continental; winters can be very cold, summers can be very warm, and long dry periods are often recorded. Central and southern Germany are transition regions which vary from moderately oceanic to continental. Again, the maximum temperature can exceed 30 °C (86 °F) in summer. Therefore nice and comfortable weather most of the time.
Germany is known for its environmental consciousness.
Germany’s universities are recognized internationally, indicating the high education standards in the country. In the 2006 World University Rankings, 10 German universities were ranked amongst the top 200 in the world.
Germany claims some of the world’s most renowned classical music composers, including Ludwig van Beethoven, Johann Sebastian Bach, Johannes Brahms and Richard Wagner. As of 2006, Germany is the fifth largest music market in the world and has influenced pop and rock music through artists such as Kraftwerk, Scorpions and Rammstein.
Germany’s television market is the largest in Europe, with some 34 million TV households.
The Berlin Film Festival, held annually since 1951, is one of the world’s foremost film festivals.
During the last decade of the 20th century Germany had transformed its attitude towards immigrants considerably. Over 10% of the population were immigrants.
With an expenditure of €58 billion for international travel in 2005, Germans invested more money in travel than any other country.
Driving in Germany can be a delight: the scenery is beautiful and the roads are well maintained.
Medical facilities are equipped with the latest technology and the statutory health insurance scheme provides nearly full cover for most medical treatments and medicines. Almost everybody in Germany has access to this system, irrespective of income or social status.
And beautiful castles, like this one,

The people in Germany are very nice and caring. Great place to live. Lots of historical sites.
Hope I helped, have fun

Top 5 Reasons To Download Country Music MP3s
Country music MP3 files are as popular as any on the market today and portable players are the way to go to enjoy music any time and any where. While the commercials tend to belie those wonderful littler miracles of modern technology with their hip-hop beats, the truth is there is lots of country music available for download. Just like any other music fans, country fanatics can be right at home with a portable MP3 player.
Getting in on this musical trend in the making is fairly easy for anyone to do. The truth is the files are easy to find, easy to download and even easier to enjoy. Since they can be taken anywhere, there’s no reason for a country music fan to go without their fix no matter where they are.
Let’s take a look at the top five reasons anyone with a penchant for this genre can benefit from downloading country music MP3s:
* Affordability. MP3 files, just like any other download out there today, tend to cost a lot less than buying entire albums. This means fans can buy the songs they want rather than having to pay for an album to get only a track or two that really gets their feet tapping.
* Manageability. The fact is a music collection can be a real bear to organize – especially if it’s a big one. MP3 files are easy to sort through the use of computer programs and even easier to manage on portable players. Since the computer does most of the work for the player’s owner, it’s just a question of pretty much dropping and dragging files onto the machine for download.
* Availability. As country music MP3 and others become more and more popular, it’s very easy to hit the Internet, buy a song and have it ready to go on a portable player in a moment’s notice. If you have a song stuck in your head, it’s likely you can have it stuck in your player within seconds.
* Cutting edge. As these files become the wave of now, more recording artists are releasing in this format and even giving sneak peeks of their work before it’s finalized. This means country fans can be on the very cutting edge of the genre with their musical collection.
* Portability. This is one of the biggest draws for country music MP3 files. The truth is portable players can go anywhere their owner goes and they can even be plugged into stereo speakers. This means music can be enjoyed privately and on the go, or it can be plugged in and played out loud for enjoyment around the house. Also, since most files also play through the computer, that options is available as well.
Country music in the MP3 file format is becoming very popular on just about all major music download sites available today. By offering fans an alternative way to get their music, these downloads give users the freedom to buy what they want when they want and take the tunes where ever they go.

Country Joe McDonald – “Feel Like I’m Fixing To Die”
“Feel Like I’m Fixing To Die”
Come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
he’s got himself in a terrible jam
way down yonder in Viet Nam so
put down your books and pick up a gun we’re
gonna have a whole lotta fun
And it’s one, two, three, what are we fighting for
don’t ask me I don’t give a damn, next stop is Viet Nam
And it’s five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates
ain’t no time to wonder why, whoopee we’re all gonna die
Come on wall street don’t be slow
why man this war is a go-go
there’s plenty good money to be made by
supplying the army with the tools of its trade
let’s hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,
they drop it on the Viet Cong
Come on generals, let’s move fast
your big chance has come at last
now you can go out and get those reds
cos the only good commie is the one that’s dead and
you know that peace can only be won when we’ve
blown ‘em all to kingdom come
Come on mothers throughout the land
pack your boys off to Viet Nam
come on fathers don’t hesitate
send your sons off before it’s too late
and you can be the first ones on your block
to have your boy come home in a box

What country in Scandinavia speaks the most english, and how much english do they speak?
I’m an american and plan on moving to live somewhere in Scandinavia when I get out of college. I do plan on learning dutch but I would like to know which country speaks the most English and also how much English they speak.
All the Scandinavian countries have a very high percentage of English speakers.. official statistics are around 90%. English is a required subject in school from age 7-8 and all media is subtitled (not dubbed as in some countries) so there’s a lot of exposure. Almost everyone speaks decent English, except young kids, some older people (60+) and some immigrants. Most people are fluent, there’s not much difference between the countries.
That said, Dutch won’t help you much in Scandinavia. And if you want to get a job here (with a few exceptions) or integrate socially, learning a Scandinavian language is a necessity.
