Personal
Money:
Your World Race budget (aka the money you support raise) will cover all
of your vital necessities on the Race. However, there will be multiple
times that you want something that is not considered a necessity. Your
own personal grooming items, extra internet time, souvenirs, and fun
adventures will be things you might want along the way.
To
access personal money you will want to bring US Dollars with you. It is
incredibly difficult to find working ATMs in Haiti. However, you can
find people who will exchange US Dollars to Haitian money at a decent
price. Also, many Haitians simply accept US Dollars as payment.
How
much money you will want depends entirely on your personal spending
habits and financial situation. A moderate amount would be approximately
$100. Keep in mind that you are choosing a lifestyle of abandonment.
Overspending personal money will interrupt that lifestyle.
