Actually this wouldn't work that well. In many countries that informally use the US dollar, they're very particular about keeping the bills in pristine condition.

    They might not have a choice if that’s what tourists are paying in. Which is why I assume many countries that do use US dollars use it in the first place anyway because of tourism.

    I can't afford to travel much but I thought it was pretty standard to have currency changing machines or stations in the airports?
