Investopedia explains 'International Currency Converter'

Currency converters are usually free of charge when found online, and are useful when determining how much of your home currency (base currency) you will need to exchange when traveling to a foreign country.

For example, if a U.S. resident travels to England, he or she will need to exchange U.S. dollars for Great Britain pounds. An online currency converter could be used to determine how much base currency would be required to buy a predetermined about of the foreign currency.
