You're lucky and unlucky. Lucky that trips back and forth are short and sweet between such awesome places. Unlucky that you fell, hurt your arm, and had no insurance.

I didn't know you could get insurance in other places outside of where you lived, can you get insurance as a tourist too?

This is what the European Health Insurance card is good for. It is good in other countries. I had insurance in the past too, but that was valid only in my country (in Hungary). I have not had the European Health Insurance card, when I was on Tenerife. Now I have. It is good almost in the entire European continent. And of course I still have the local (Hungarian) health insurance too.

can you get insurance as a tourist too?

Yes. The European Health Insurance card is good for the tourists too. It is good for anyone, who is temporarily staying abroad in most of the European countries.
