What’s the best International Travel Insurance for an 18yo?

I’m Traveling to Europe from Australia in July 2011 for 5 months with a friend of mine. We’re both 18 and are a bit unsure of what travel insurance to get. Our Travel Agent suggested covermore, however, i read some reviews which where anything but positive! I’ve heard that medibank private and QBE have quite good insurance… but I’m still not sure. Any advice would be fantastic.

For basic travel insurance I get mine from ING (now called “One Path.”)

http://www.onepath.com.au/personal/insurance/travel-insurance.aspx

Travel insurance only cost me about $2/day.
This covers emergency medical and medical transport back home.
