what currencies are in your (travel) wallet?
Forgive me if this has been asked before, I did do a search.
What (if any) currencies do you carry around? I mostly use cards when travelling, but always keep a spare note or two of currencies of countries I visit/transit most. That leaves me usually with
CAD
EUR
GBP
& USD
in my wallet mostly.

JPY Japan

Being located in Singapore and traveling regularly throughout the Asia Pacific region explains most of this. (This is only my 'active' stash -- my longer-term collection also includes Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, Maltese Lira, Swedish Kroner and Swiss Francs -- along with a few now-defunct pre-Euro currencies.)

I don't really have a "travel wallet" - more like an old envelope sitting in my nightstand with lots of bills and coins from places I'm likely to return to soon.
In it I've got a bunch of stuff:
CAD
EUR
GBP (only coins, though, I think)
Uruguayan pesos
Brazilian reals
I also had a bunch of Argentinean pesos, but after my last trip in October I think I got to the airport with about 5 pesos in coins left on me.
