What do you all do with the leftover foreign currency?

1. Keep for next travel (anticipate a higher rate in future)
or
2. Dilute it (might lose the exchange rate but better cost opportunity)?

It it's widely used currency like US dollar, that is fine. I have lots of different countries currency sitting in my drawer going nowhere. That's why I now carry minimum cash of a foreign country and sometime just put them in donation box in airport, if there is any.

Not really. Mainly yen, euro, and Swiss franc which have been losing based on the last exchange rate. Looking at the opportunity cost that I missed if I put the money to work somewhere else.
