OK, and whats is your question?

I agree with Andrew....When someone travels to a foreign land they will have to face roaming charges if they stick on to the original carrier they are with...to avoid the roaming charges one can either rent a mobile in the foreign country or use a local sim.When you rent a mobile be careful to read the regulations and lease period.Renting a cell phone is advised for those who are traveling overseas for only one or two weeks.

Or get a second hand/cheap go phone.

Another option is to use a local sim with your mobile.For that your mobile should be unlocked one so as to accept the sim card that you insert.If it is locked with a particular network then it won't be able to recognize or accept other networks.To unlock your phone you can approach the respective network provider or any third party unlocking websites like Unlock-zone.com and remove the restriction.Once the mobile is unlocked you can use the phone with the local sim.

Choose an option depending on the number of days that you stay and the one that is economical for you.

Hope my information is useful.
