Take cash out in bigger amounts if you know you'll have somewhere really secure to leave it, saves transaction fees. But please, make sure you take a credit card... even if you don't plan on using it you never know when you're going to need money fast. |
And I forgot to add, don't just take American Express. Though every business we went to in Spain had signs up saying they accepted it, they are refused to take the one guys card. They said their was something wrong with how American Express was processing the bills. He had to borrow money from another traveller for his trip |

Yes, I want to get a Visa, but the bank keeps turning me down... I might be able to get a 2nd card for my Dad`s Visa though.
