Cash and only cash. I live in Europe, so basocally wherever I decide to travel, my euros will be accepted, otherwise I'd rather get ripped off by an exchange than give a single piece of metadata to my bank :)
Travelling to places with a different currency outside the EU, I take my debit card and on the very first day withdraw some of the local currency from an ATM.
I live in the eurozone, and I don't even know what euro cash looks like.
What are your reasons for using a card? Not bashing you, just genuinely interested :)
I don't want to carry around more shit and it makes payment faster and less fucking about.
Also if I lose it I don't lose all my money.
