Although the country I recently returned from was the UK (and I used the same thing in Singapore late last year). I opened a Citibank Ready Credit account - sort of like a massive unsecured overdraft. You get a Citicard (a atm card not a credit card)to withdraw in atms and you can use in any bank (with a visa plus connection) to withdraw money and there is no transaction fees - only a interest charge(much like a cash advance from your credit card). My trip to the UK was the first time I had neve taken travellers chques overseas (although I did take my other cards as a backup). Just a suggestion anyway
