The ticket and accommodation is confirmed and finally to get the things pack. It is very important to list most needed item only when traveling to other country. I have decided to get light pack and not to forget with small laptop too(net-book). When we travel abroad, pack only few things as clothes can be bought later. One must also aware of the electricity and socket type use for the visited country. In Vietnam most of newly build hotels are using socket type C with 250V. It is easy to find the socket adapter type C sell along the streets for as low as VND 10,000.
