Insurance products that fit your work-life balance – tips for Aachen and North Rhine-Westphalia
Between university life and quality of life – Aachen lives the mix
In Aachen, where the historic old town meets high-tech and student cafés share the street with research labs, work-life balance isn't a luxury, it's a way of life. Whether you work at RWTH Aachen , Aachen University of , or a start-up – many young people in the region are asking themselves: How do I properly insure myself for my lifestyle, juggling studying, part-time jobs, and semesters abroad?
⚠️ Problem: Modern lifestyles – traditional insurance policies often don't fit
Aachen is young, mobile, and international – but many insurance companies still operate like they did in the 90s. Those who live flexible lives, travel frequently, or work remotely need insurance that keeps pace.
But what happens if you experience mental overload during your studies? What if your international health insurance doesn't cover you during a workation trip to Spain? Or if your borrowed tablet gets damaged in a coworking space?
According to Stiftung Warentest, many standard tariffs fail these questions – too inflexible, too opaque, too expensive.
