How is the OP planning to access cash during the trip? If by ATM card, now would be the time to investigate things like a card's foreign-exchange fees, fees for making a withdrawal from a foreign ATM, reimbursement -- if any -- for fees charged by the foreign ATM, etc.
If most spending is going to be done by a credit or debit card, one should again investigate whether the card charges a foreign-exchange fee.
