I mean the real answer is to spend them in the airport bar on the way home, obviously.

Wishing well is your only option.

With my incredibly successful rich business person jet-setting lifestyle, I keep a little pot of Euro coins on my coffee table for all of the many extremely glamorous European locations* that I travel to frequently for extremely important** meetings.

I’ve always imagined The Hague to be literally the most boring place on Earth. Have always pictured it as being a neatly laid out grid full of nothing but row after row of grey office buildings.

I usually put them in a charity bin at the airport

Stick them to a piece of paper and write 4.7 euro and draw a picture of baloonz on the note

Maybe you could yer coins changed in a two bit peep show in Rio de Janiero.

pedantry alert
Bureaux de change

Throw them in a fountain.

It’s weird it should be called a Bureau de Change in that case.

Should be called a Bureau de Notes instead…

I quite like it! Spent a long weekend there after a work trip. It’s got the royal portrait museum (where Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring is, plus a few Rembrandts) and a really excellent M C Escher museum. Couple of decent restaurants, some pretty buildings to look at, job done.

Wouldn’t want to spend ages there but I prefer work trips there over Munich, because I’m only ever in the shit grey bit there.

Should be called the Bureau de NOTES then really.

hi i live in the hague
it’s quite nice, lots of good parks and buildings and a beach 10 minutes away
not great for gigs and stuff for a city that size though. everyone just goes shopping
