Some of these beautiful, history-steeped countries don\u2019t use the euro, and thus are much friendlier to the American dollar. Be swept away by the sandy beaches of Bulgaria or revel in Hungary\u2019s majestic castles. Hungary\u2019s exchange rate at the end of 2013 was almost 220 forints to the dollar (for reference, that could <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hungarybudapestguide.com\/information\/currency-in-hungary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">buy you a half-liter of Coke<\/a>). If you are dying to see Europe in winter, check out Budapest\u2019s winter promotion that offers one night free when you book a two- or three-night stay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Zealand:<\/strong> Perhaps the only thing you know about New Zealand has to do with \u201cThe Lord of the Rings,\u201d but it doesn\u2019t have to stay that way. New Zealand is a great place for people who love to bungee-jump, snorkel or just enjoy the great outdoors. If you\u2019re a diehard camper or backpacker, there are some great lodging deals for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newzealand.com\/us\/farmstays\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">farmstays<\/a> (similar to a bed &amp; breakfast) and camping that will allow you to be one with nature. One U.S. dollar equals roughly 1.2 New Zealand dollars currently, so consider planning now to visit this majestic, magical country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>South America:<\/strong> From Ecuador to Argentina, it\u2019s easy to stay in South America on the cheap. Since Ecuador\u2019s currency is the U.S. dollar, you can use American currency, which makes it a little easier to know when you\u2019re getting a fair deal. If you\u2019re a nature buff, consider breathtaking Argentina, which not only boasts wine trails and gorgeous mountains, but also is wallet-friendly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Bahamas:<\/strong> If umbrellas in your drinks and sand between your toes are what you crave, the Bahamas might just be your home away from home. The Bahamian dollar matches the U.S. dollar 1-to-1, but U.S. currency also is accepted in this breathtaking country. Enjoy duty-free shopping, thrilling casinos, relaxing beaches and cave diving while still pinching pennies. If you can\u2019t get enough seafood, head to Outriggers Native Restaurant and chow down like the locals.<\/p>\n<p>With these handy tips, you\u2019re ready to plan your next dollar-friendly vacation.
