The Foreign Exchange @ Revival in Toronto, Canada
Do not exchange much money before you go or even after you get to Europe. All money changers charge a fee on top of their frequently inflated rates.
Instead, wait until you get to Europe and use your credit or debit cards at any ATM there to withdraw cash. The cash will come out in Euros (or whatever the local currency may be) and your card account will be charged in your own currency back home at a bank exchange rate usually much lower than at any money changer's.
If it'd make you feel better to have some pocket cash when you land in Europe, exchange only a small amount ($50 to $100) at your local bank before you. Then draw cash from ATM's as you go in Europe throughout your stay there.
I'm in Toronto and I'd be interested in finding a school for a traders license in foreign exchange.
Any ideas? Maybe even correspondence.
More info please
I want to become a foreign exchange student badly!
On with the queston xD...
I want to either go to Japan(Tokyo) or Canada(Toronto)
So I wanted to know do I have to pay money or does the person that takes care of me pays the greens xD!?
Hi!
My answer is if you are high school level.
You will definitely be the one to pony up the cash! Being an exchange student is expensive. A program can run between $5,000 and $10,000 depending upon country, length of stay and exchange organization. Rotary is the cheapest, but most competitive. Others do offer scholarships.
This fee usually will cover travel, insurance, orientations, placement in a host family and school, and administrative costs. You should be aware that your host family does NOT get paid for hosting you! It is strictly volunteer! They cover your room and food. You cover your personal and school expenses.
You should also know that while you can pick your country, you generally cannot pick the particular place WITHIN that country -- i.e. Tokyo.

Good luck!

Demand for bullion also slowed as the dollar steadied against a basket of six major currencies, after rebounding from a 14-month low.
“This is technical selling near the record,” said Frank McGhee , the head dealer at Integrated Brokerage Services Inc. in Chicago. “A little dollar strength brought gold down,” after a slump in the currency this week fueled demand, he said.
Gold futures for December delivery fell $14.10, or 1.3 percent, to $1,050.60 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange’s Comex division, the steepest drop since Sept. 24. The 14-day RSI was 72.86 yesterday after reaching 73.062 on Oct. 13, below last week’s high of 73.707, on Oct. 8.
Wonderful typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng have wrought disruption in the Philippines, as talent disasters around the orb have gone up due to feeling hard cash. Substitute and rehabilitation efforts become doubly trying (or will be even much more questionable when planning responses to later regular disasters) because of the atrocity of the ruin caused to both sensitive existence and the boondocks’s conservatism. Make right now, Filipinos here in Toronto have opened up their hearts to show they be responsible for for the hot water of all those folks who suffered most from the flooding caused by the typhoons.

Giving your encouragement to organizations and other movements that call for, say, curbing gas emissions to the heavens, is as compelling as inauguration up your wallets. As unembellished disasters at to chagrin the Philippines at almost anticipated seasonal intervals, it’s also about nonetheless that the oversight and its planners focus beyond the tasks of liberating, recapture, ease and rehabilitation. All that these tasks will effect is completely to tone down the effects of these disasters, and mitigation commonly is simply sparse term.
