I am traveling to Denmark and Italy next month. I am carrying some Euros for the trip, which should work in Italy. My card allows international transactions without any fees. Do I need to carry Danish Krone as well? I am there for a week. How is the country’s dependence on cash vs. cards, especially for local transportation and food?

        Should I be paying in dollars or local currency when swiping the credit card?

          Always local currency. If you pay in foreign (relative to the country you visit) you pay the local conversion rate which is almost always worse than your own banks.
