While planning our next (first) trip after retirement, it occured to me that I’ll need Euros in hand to pay for our housing. In the past I had used a bank to convert dollars to pounds or francs, and naturally that is the first thing I thought to do. My second thought was, let’s check the web for advice.

Rick Steves to the rescue. His travel videos are very informative and entertaining at the same time. They skim the surface of some very interesting locals without going into detail which leaves the joy of discovery to us. Here’s what his website has to say about foreign money exchange:

I reccommend reading through his website ahead of any foreigh travel.
