"How do exchange rates work? International travel is usually always accompanied by international currency exchange. You're going to exchange your currency typically either before you leave the US either at a bank here locally, or while you're overseas at the country you're visiting their bank. Banks need to make some profit off of your transaction so typically they're going to charge you a nominal fee. Currencies are either going to be a floating exchange or a pegged exchange. Floating is where they vary on supply and demand. Pegged currency is when it doesn't change on a day to day basis. You'll usually find this in newer countries or countries with unstable economies. Should you decide to exchange currency, your best bet is to find a bank with consistent exchange rates or one with low fees. And that's how exchange rates work."
