Un poquito dinero
I love foreign currency. It's so much more colorful than US currency. With the exchange rates in Latin America, it feels like you have more money than you actually do. Of course, it's all relative. Lately, a few countries have been switching up their bills from paper to plastic. It's more difficult to counterfit and more durable. Both Guatemala and Mexico have made the switch.
Currency can be a little history lesson too, with local heros, buildings, and other symbols of national significance. I'm ready with a small amount of Guatemalan Quetzales to get me to the hotel, tips and other snall expenses.
