Currency quandry

My 16 year old daughter is going away with the Scouts in the summer to Denmark, Sweden and Romania (World Scout Jamboree). The problem is, she will need 3 forms of currency (none of them use Euro's), and we dont know how much she will need in each country. (She is in Denmark for only 3 days, but it's very expensive there, and in Sweden for a week, and although its expensive, her meals etc will be paid for, but she will still need money to buy things; then 5 days in Romania, where it is very cheap). I really dont want her having to keep 3 lots of currency safe in her luggage while she is away. The post office used to have a card that could be pre-loaded with a certain amount, that could be used in any country, (at a cost!) but they no longer do it. Any suggestions anyone??
