Three Inch Leech Stows Away In Backpacker's Nose For More Than A Month Empty Three Inch Leech Stows Away In Backpacker's Nose For More Than A Month

A British backpacker returned from her travels to find she’d brought along a stowaway leech – up her nose.

Astonishingly, the three-inch long creature had been living in Daniela Liverani’s nostril for more than a month.

Liverani had been travelling around south-east Asia when she started suffering persistent nosebleeds, but put it down to a burst blood vessel from a motorbike crash.

No, but I almost sneezed Smile

I was going to ask how you could not notice something that big lodged in your head, but if you'd had a motorcycle crash, you might easily chalk it up to lingering soreness.
