Playing mind tricks on yourself and on your wallet can be a dangerous reality when shopping in foreign territory. An American searching for a new handbag in London, for example, may be thrilled to see a stunning specimen with a numeric value of 200. Enchanted by perfect pockets and sleek stitching, said American shopper may overlook the mental computation needed to understand that 200 means 315 in the dialect of dollars.
To save our fellow travelers from this mental money-spending trickery, we at The Traveler’s Collection highly recommend the on-the-go XE Currency App! To find out more and download prior to your next trip abroad, check out XE Currency here:
