Money

What form you should take your money in depends on your destination, but it is wise not to rely on just one source of funds. Nowadays you should be able to find an ATM that accepts major credit cards in many parts of the world, allowing you to withdraw cash in the local currency. Travellers cheques give you more security as they can't be cashed without your signature, but for your convenience check which currency of travellers cheques will be accepted at your destination. Cash in certain currencies will also be easily changed in many destinations, however it's not recommended that you carry large sums of cash. Wherever you're travelling to, it's a good idea to take a small amount of cash to be used in emergency. US Dollars are accepted almost everywhere and it is worth having $50 - $100 in cash.
