If all has gone to plan, then as you’re reading this I am living it up in Paris.

Before I left I exchanged some Australian dollars for Euro (I purchased the packs from ANZ that come in lots of 350 Euros) and I added some Euro to my travel card.

At first it was a challenge to see my Australian dollars reduce to their Euro equivalent, but I know me and when I travel I end up forgetting the exchange rate and simply shop in the relevant currency with what’s in my wallet.

Obviously it’s important to not overspend and to be mindful of your budget, but I also believe in enjoying my time while I am away…lucky for me Galeries Lafayette is just around the corner from my hotel, I best go for a look!
