EXIT STRATEGIES
When traveling it is prudent to convert most
of your money back to your native currency
before you leave. With some nations, it is illegal
to take their money out. Also some money has
such low esteem it cannot be converted once
outside. I still have several hundred dollars of
Ghanaian paper that no one will touch.
A friend of mine invented the strategy where
travelers donate their assorted coins. These
are collected, collated and shipped back
to their respective countries then given to
charitable causes.
Some countries still
have exit taxes. Be sure
you have the right
form of money to pay
to come back home.
I have “lent” many a
wayward traveler
the requisite amount
to get them through
customs. Lots of
people can experience
great adventures. It is
these who RETURN
with photos who get
the glory.
