“It's a horrible place to exchange money. They're not trying to keep up with exchange rates. They do it solely as a convenience for the people in the hotel.”
“Don't exchange a lot of money ahead of time. In Europe, credit cards are accepted almost everywhere. I was in Iceland recently and they even take credit cards in taxi cabs.”
“It's quite doable. Once you get there, Australia is an incredibly good buy. It's hard to believe how good the prices are. You can stay in a really good hotel for about $140 per night, where in Europe, the same hotel would cost about $400 per night.”
