I was giving a 1 EURO coin as a tip to the Airport Shuttle bus drivers who
would unload my suitcase from the back of the bus onto the street for me to
carry into the hotel. I know it is almost 1 USD but based on U.S. currency
I felt like I was only giving him a quarter. No one cursed at me so I
guess it was OK.
You can save your 1 EURO coins for your next trip across the Channel. The
Dover to Calis ferries take them or get a whole pocket full to use in the
European Union countries.
