If you are using a credit card you might want to find out if there will be any extra fees for using it outside the US (on the part of your bank). I have two different credit cards with Chase - one that charges fees outside the US but is cheaper domestically - and another one that does not charge fees outside the US (but costs more in yearly maintenance). When I used the first card in Canada several years ago Chase tacked on an extra 10% in exchange fees - that is why I got the other one.

Most US credit cards charge a 3% foreign transaction fee for transactions in foreign currencies.

Most cards issued by credit unions charge a 1% fee.

Capital One cards charge no foreign transaction fee. Alhough I really dislike the bank itself, I have one of their cards for this reason.

Related to this topic, is there a place to buy pins or badges with an Esperanto flag on it? I went to the above UEA link, but unfortunately my Esperanto is not at that level yet.

This one ? The UEA site sale others pins, like this one, this one or this one. If you want to search by yourself, you can see this page, but be careful, the esperanto word "nehavebla" means "unavailable".

PS : I don't know if it's a good website, but you can see here.

Esperanto-USA sells good pins. I have a lapel pin with the green star on white that I've been extremely pleased with.

On a similar note to that of this thread, anyone know where to order a bust of Zamenhof? I've only ever found one sketchy looking shop on ebay.
