In Reply to: How much money should I take? posted by Adamjomi on Sunday, 9. January 2005 at 19:21 Bali Time:
I think the most sensible way to go is to take a combination of a number of different sources. CC, ATM, cash. Last time we just took a combination of cash and CC which worked beautifully, but I never felt entirely safe with some of the run down safety deposit boxes.
I feel the best recommendation on the forum regarding money was the one that said to take one of those cash passports from a company that charges hardly any fees. That is, not Travellex.
So next time we travel, we'll take a third in cash, a third on the cash passport and a third on our normal CC.
