this course is very usefull and I am glad you give me this opportunity!
next month i will be travelling to Bangladesh for academic visit (teaching exchange) and your tips and suggestions have been more than usefull for orgnizing my travel.
unfortunately, my university did not provide me any type of support to handle issues such as travel policy, health issues and other security aspects involved in my activity abroad. this is very usafe and unprofessional from them (Bangladesh is a code 2 for international security according to US reports and academic travellers are not tourists...).
I suggest you provide more 'examples' or cases and expand this course with one unit dedicated to personal organization of travel - such as checklists and do/donts that are relevant for academic travellers in risky situations.
thank you!

I was very interested in the contents provided in this course but unluckily I discovered it too late, when the course was coming to an end. Had I enrolled when the course had just started, I would probably have enjoyed it more. In the end, I liked this course and I would recommend it if someone were to be travelling to potentially dangerous areas of the world or to someone who just travels extensively.
