**Euro Rises After US, EU Agree to Tariff Deal: American Tourists Rummage Drawers for Forgotten Francs**
After years of shouting at each other over who taxes whose cheese more, the United States and European Union have finally agreed to a tariff deal—sending the euro soaring and American travelers scrambling to Google “What’s a currency exchange rate and should I panic?”
International markets responded swiftly to the news, as the euro gained value against the dollar. “It’s great news for Europeans exporting fine wines and slightly rude waiters,” said Wolfgang Bratwurst, an EU trade representative, while gently cradling a baguette laminated with the deal’s text.
US negotiator Jack Beefburglar confirmed, “We finally realized that taxing each other’s products to prove a point was making our stuff more expensive for no reason. So, we decided to do something truly American: blame the last administration and then call it progress.”
Immediately following the announcement, startled American tourists encamped in Parisian hotels discovered their vacation budgets had evaporated faster than their hopes of pronouncing “croissant” correctly. “Yesterday, I could buy a coffee and a croissant for ten dollars. Today, it’s just the foam,” lamented Ohio native Karen Wallet, while attempting to barter a Target receipt for a pain au chocolat.
Meanwhile, European economists celebrated the euro’s gains by updating their LinkedIn profiles to “Currency Influencer.” Rumors also circulated that the Louvre briefly considered raising the Mona Lisa’s entry fee to “Just Bring a Tesla.”
Experts predict a brief surge in demand for old guidebooks, francs, and anyone who remembers what a traveler’s cheque is. The US Embassy in Rome has already preemptively issued a warning, advising citizens to “keep calm, carry cash, and consider eating pasta at home for a while.”
One thing’s certain: as the euro rises, so too will the number of creative ways Americans ask if restaurants accept Apple Pay.
