Currency Exchange: Swap USD, GBP, CAD and CNY

We all have different financial goals when we decide to take a job abroad. Let's talk about how to exchange currency.


Just because you're abroad doesn't mean you still don't need to pay the car note, send family money or take care of student loans. You need your home country's currency to do that.


Maybe you are trying to save money, invest or just live a comfortable lifestyle. Either way, you may still have financial interests that need to be taken care of in your home country. The biggest question is: HOW? Look no more. Check out a service called Swapsy.
