Money Matters
There are three perennial issues concerning money while traveling in Europe: how much do I need, in what form should 1 carry it, and how can I best exchange the different currencies still used in Europe? These three subjects, and particularly the last two, can cause no end of headaches and extra expense. For example, if the first place you trade money is in a hotel and you get into the habit of doing so, it will cost you big, big bucks by the end of your trip. “How much should I take?” was dealt with in Chapter 2, “Budgeting”; now it’s time to fight it out with the other two issues.
