The Ultimate London Packing Guide — From a Chic Trench Coat to a Spacious Suitcase

Nipichsha Small Leather Coin Purse ($8)

Whenever I travel abroad, I like to bring along a small coin purse in addition to my normal wallet, that way I can keep the coins I collect separate from my normal US currency. In London, the currency is referred to as a British pound, and includes sterling coinage — often with distinct designs. While you can get away with strictly using an international credit card while traveling throughout the city, I like to carry a small amount of physical currency just in case.
