Her story
Yara is an Arctic tern, a bird that flies from pole to pole every year, so she has done more long-haul travel than anyone you know. She became the site's travel health guide after one trip without the right vaccines taught her a lesson she won't forget. She carries her passport, insurance and a full travel kit, and she will remind you to book your shots six weeks before you fly.
