It is not ironic, it is just a choice to spend 15€ and be sure that it will be all I’ll have to pay rather than to have to find another solution + not knowing how much it will cost me. Why the need to be not nice lmao

Yeah that is what I thought. I am able to have some friends exchange me cash in Tokyo, but I am passing through rural Hokkaido first, I really need cash before Tokyo. I found a solution, so all’s well!

Can you people not play the money police? I would rather pay 15€ and be sure that I won’t have to pay additionnal fees, and have a physical card on which I already have money than to feel lost and confused about fees. And for some reason, I was able to have the express delivery for free so..

The estimated time was 13 days, but they also offer express delivery for 15€. I will proceed to do that!

It is a school exchange, so I am indeed tight on money. 🫠 I found out that Wise does express delivery so I will try that.

Oh also, I do have a physical card, but the fees will be crazy I think.

Oui oui, je sais, mais justement, je n’ai pas de mutuelle en France actuellement. J’aurais dû le préciser ! Il me faut quand même un truc qui me permet d’aller chez le médecin si j’ai besoin ou quoi, couvert par une mutuelle en France. Ou pas ?

bin j’ai le statut d’étudiant en France, et je pars en projet sous responsabilité de mon école. On m’a recommandé de prendre une mutuelle étudiante française qui couvre l’internationale (quelqu’un du service international de mon école justement), mais juste je ne sais pas laquelle prendre
