[quote=Anonymous]Back to the money: depending on how soon you're going and if it works for you, consider getting a credit card that doesn't charge exchange fees.  The United and American Airlines-affiliated cards have this feature and are free for the first year.

Otherwise--you'll just have to compare which option for payment is least costly.  One surprise to me: I was traveling recently, and another member of my group had gotten a very reasonable rate by just getting 1,000 euros in cash.

Of course, a lot will depend on what expenses you'll need to cover. (Is it a work trip? How is hotel being covered?)

Laundry: I'm also a fan of washing the small items often and carrying less, though I'll admit that my current preferred solution is to seek out an AirBnB with a washer.

Enjoy!

I would second the suggestion to try to travel more, but with a different angle: it's often not much (or any!) more costly than some US destinations--it's more about getting used to international travel.  I hope you love your trip and it encourages you to travel more![/quote]
