How to get cash when traveling in europe
Notify your domestic bank about your travel plans.
There have been many cases where travelers have their card accounts frozen because of " suspicious foreign activity ". Your bank means well, but if you don't tell them you might be stranded with no access for cash for several days.

OPTIONS:
- Take as much cash, in the foreign currency, as you feel comfortable carrying and get it before you leave for the airport. Check with your bank to see if they can sell you some currency before you go.
- They will absolutely hold you in your home until you've got some cash on hand and make arrangements with your local bank. Also be sure to let them know of any troubles that might arise with your cash or your travel plan if they have any.
- To avoid this situation, call them and let them know you plan to stay overnight. If you'll be in europe for more than several days, inform your bank in advance.
- Learn the locations of the countries you intend to travel to. Staying somewhere with a strict curfew of 7 days or a huge international holiday where countries can afford to raise their rates dramatically has done wonders for your chances of being able to get cash during those seven days.

OUT: Take as much cash, in the foreign currency, as you feel comfortable carrying and get it before you leave for the airport. Check with your bank to see if they can sell you some currency before you go.
