    the international currency rates of exchange change daily as answered by CMC

    australia is not malaysia... cash is safe to carry here

    however the best method for travelling is a mixture of cash and a debit card

    use your cash to pay for small items like meals

    get enough cash from the atm to last a few days

    use your debit card to pay for hotels hostels airfares and expensive items

    You will pay a small fee for cash withdrawals from ATMs. You could safely carry around up to a thousand dollars in cash. Don t keep it all in one place.The biggest danger is that you will lose it, not theft.

    No my question is do you carry cash around or you put mostly inside bank during traveling to the other country and when you need just withdraw at nearby ATM machine

    Seriously, you have a thousand bigger problems with your trip planning than what you're going to do for cash.
