Where are you going & what's your laptop got hardware wise. On my overseas trips earlier in the year all I brought was the laptop & power supply/cord. (Make sure you have the correct plug adapter for whichever country you visit) The hotels I stayed at (1 in China, 2 in Canada & 1 in the U.S.) all had internet connections in the room. All I had to do was plug in the rooms supplied ethernet cable. I didn't worry about email applications & did everything via webmail. Some of the newer hotels are all wireless too.
