Always have at least two pairs. One pair for walking around the city and another pair for going on vacation.
Also, make sure to have enough clothing for both. When you fly, it is essential to bring enough clothing.
Consider bringing some clothes if you are planning to stay somewhere for a longer time. This will ensure that you don't feel awkward while shopping for new outfits.
Comfortable shoes are a must if you're going to be taking the train or bus. You'll also need to bring a spare set if you are driving.

Where can I find cheap accommodation when traveling abroad?
For travelers looking for cheap accommodation, there are several options: hostels; hotels; guest houses; and bed & Breakfasts.
Hostels are inexpensive and offer dorm-style rooms where guests share bathrooms and living areas.
Hotels are often located in tourist areas. They offer private rooms with en-suite bathrooms.
Guesthouses are similar to hostels, except they often have larger rooms and fewer people sharing each room.
These beds and breakfasts are very well-liked by budget-conscious travelers. Guests can stay in their own private homes and have a full breakfast included in their stay.
Where should I store my luggage
There are many options. Most people use airport lockers. They are usually located close to the security area. These lockers cost $5-10 per day depending on their size.
Another option is to rent a storage unit. These units are often located in large shopping centers or hotels. Although prices vary, some places offer discounts for multiple units that are rented together.
Another option is to hire porters. A porter will take your luggage from the carousel and bring it to your room. You pay a small fee each time he helps you.
