I'm going to need a bigger wallet




The exchange rate is about 10,300 kip/$1. And the largest bill is 20,000 kip, which is just less than $2. As such, when one gets $200 in kip, it makes one a multi-millionaire (in kip), with a fat wad of cash in your pocket.

We felt pretty giddy about our windfall, even if it was only $200. At least Katherine didn't roll around on a bed in the cash.
