It’s no fun to pick on anyone when they’re down, but when it comes to currency, it all comes around anyway. I’ll never forget visiting London in 2005 when the Great British Pound was 2:1 against the US Dollar, and everything felt like getting robbed.

Today, it’s quite a different picture with the dollar within 20 cents of the pound, making London more affordable (and fun) than it’s been in over a decade. Yes, this is the time to go.
