🇸🇻 El Salvador Travel Summary

Just spent a week there - here's my honest take: 1️⃣ Safety First Felt completely safe the whole trip! (Even at night in tourist areas) 2️⃣ Currency Quirks • Official: USD + Bitcoin (yes, really! ₿😂) • Reality: Bitcoin rarely accepted $20 bills are usable (despite rumors) Pro tip: Break big bills at supermarkets 3️⃣ Payment Surprises 💳 Cards: • Visa/Mastercard widely accepted (90% take Amex too!) • But... "Apple Pay? Qué es eso?" 😅 Most make you insert chip (no tap) Small vendors = cash only 4️⃣ ATM Hacks • Flat $4.50 fee at Banco Davivienda • Wealthsimple Cash Card = no extra charges 💸 Final Thoughts: A crypto-curious paradise with better infrastructure than expected! #ElSalvadorAdventures #TravelSmart
