If one wants to travel around Europe or Asia, how would someone outside of the local continents even know how/where/who to search for? Am I missing some more intuitive we…

Paypal converting FX transaction amount even though I chose to pay in foreign currency My bank is CAD. Was paying for Europe travel – accommodations, train tickets, etc. – which were all in EURO currency. I paid with my credit card via Paypal.

Heathrow crumbled…
