Welcome to "Beyond the Policy: Travel Tales & Tips from Craig Robinson"

Hello and welcome to my personal corner of the web! I'm Craig Robinson, and I’m thrilled to invite you to join me on this journey, where we delve into the heart of travel, the nuances of insurance, and the stories that connect us all.

For those who know me through my professional life, I’ve been blessed to serve as the Owner and General Managing Agent of Insurance Consultants International (ICI). Over the years, I’ve helped thousands of travelers navigate the often-confusing world of travel insurance. But beyond the policies, there’s a bigger story — the adventures, the lessons learned, and the people who inspire us to explore the world.  

This blog, "Beyond the Policy," is a space to share those stories and more. Whether it’s recounting a personal travel tale, offering practical advice for navigating unexpected travel hiccups, or reflecting on the deeper meaning of the journeys we take, my goal is to provide a blend of inspiration, education, and insight.

A Different Perspective

You may notice this blog has a different feel from my professional posts over at Insurance Consultants International’s Travel News. Here, I hope to be a little more personal, more reflective, and more connected to the experiences that shape us as travelers. For a glimpse into my life outside of insurance, you can also find me sharing family adventures on Papi and Gigi’s Blog.

What You’ll Find Here

In this space, expect to find:

• Travel Stories: Tales from my own adventures and those of others, reminding us why we wander.
• Practical Tips: Lessons learned (sometimes the hard way) about navigating the unpredictable nature of travel.
• Behind-the-Scenes Insights: A look into what goes into crafting travel insurance plans and how they can make a difference when it matters most.
• Faith and Family Reflections: How my faith and family inspire my approach to travel and business.

One of my favorite sayings is, "A medical evacuation doesn’t happen often, but it happens every day to someone." This quote underscores the unpredictable nature of life and the importance of being prepared. It’s this belief that motivates much of what I do professionally, but it also serves as a reminder to live each day to the fullest, savoring the moments that make our journeys worthwhile.

Join the Journey

So whether you’re here to learn, to be inspired, or just to share in the joy of travel, I’m glad you’re along for the ride. Feel free to leave comments, share your own stories, or reach out with questions. Let’s explore the world together — one story, one tip, and one adventure at a time.
