You don’t need more than ~ $200 in cash, most places accept credit cards, carry 2 visa cards to to be safe

Most places don't accept Amex (except hotels and popular places). Do carry Visa/MasterCard.

Don't exchange at Airport, they will rip you off. Best rates are either at Banks or Individual Travel agents where you are staying.

I do a lot of the small things, make sure I’m hitting all his love languages daily, and I keep feeling like he thinks he’s doing everything to keep me happy, but
