There are many important aspects to be prepared for a international trip, understanding the local currency of the country you’re visiting and how it compares to the U.S. dollar is very high on that list. Not knowing the conversion rate can quickly lead to overspending, confusion, or missed opportunities — and that stress can take away from the enjoyment of your trip. Being prepared helps you budget wisely, shop and dine with confidence, and avoid unpleasant surprises. Many smartphones have a built-in currency converter feature within their calculator app, and for added convenience we recommend using the XE Currency Converter, a user-friendly tool that provides real-time exchange rates.
