Bad idea to ask an individual for currency exchange. Do yourself a favor, go to your local bank or any bank and get a reasonable amount of Euros for your trip. Then, when you get to wherever it is you are going, go either to the local post office or local bank and exchange however much you might need. The same applies when you leave the country you are visiting. Cash out before you get home. NEVER, EVER, USE AIRPORT CURRENCY EXCHANGE VENDORS. YOU'LL BE EVER SO SORRY. YOU GET SO MUCH LESS FOR YOUR MONEY. IN SHORT, IT'S A RIP OFF....
We own a home in the US as well as in England and find that currency exchange or international transfer of funds are best handled by banks.
And lastly, do as another has suggested, make sure you notify your credit card company before you go abroad. If you don't you may find that your card will get blocked and you will not be able to use it. It's easy to do online with your credit card company. If you fail to do this, be prepared to answer lengthy security questions if the card is denied.
Have a great trip and relax...:
