Hi!
Well this summer, im going to Berlin,Germany for vacation. I live in the US and my family bought insurance here in the US. I enjoy ice skaing and I think it would be a lotta fun being able to Ice skate in Berlin(it’s going to be my first time going there)
And say if I got hurt would my insurance pay for it?(i know sometimes it just depends on the insurance you have but I was just curious.=)

thanks so much! =D
