I was in Switzerland and a girl on the train asked a worker if she could pay her fine in USD. I couldn’t help but laugh 😂

When I moved to London I had TWO people ask me “do you think it’ll be challenging to find people who speak English? Are you nervous to communicate?”

Actually, there are countries that accept currency besides their own including the USD. Panama, Tanzania and Canada are just some examples.

As a teenager working in a bookstore in Canada I had to explain to a grown man that he couldn’t pay the American price for the book in USD. It was a very sobering moment

Even if ‘some’ places except USD, the exchange rate will likely be terrible. Always best to exchange your USD at a bank to the local currency!!

It’s because most Americans think that traveling means taking a Caribbean cruise and all of those poor islands take dollars

I've been to dozens of countries where they will accept USD without question... Literally just got back from South Africa and when I was short on Rand they asked if I had USD to make up the difference

Your logic makes sense, but the same logic should apply to Canadians, no?I would have never thought I can use CAD in another country. Yet Americans come to 🇨🇦 all the time thinking they can use USD.

About the currency, I think Americans esp think that because Mexico often accepts both and has both in the ATMs! But yea it’s not hard to get euros…

Gurrrl. Americans ask to use USD here in Canada all the time. Some places will take it at par but give back change in CAD. The Karens lose their minds

When you pay with a card it will ask you if you want to pay in your nation’s currency or in euros. Always choose euros or you’re gonna get a large conversion fee.

My last trip to Paris I used dollars. Many in fact. The restaurant by our hotel asked if we were paying in cash, could it be the dollar. I spent several hundreds of dollars as it was higher than euro

Why the hell do they think they’d be able to use US dollars outside of the US, it’s literally called UNITED STATES DOLLARS

Yes, but people from other countries (not the US, EU) also might have different currency and they don’t travel much. But they know that currency and banking system is different in other countries.
