one visa, one mastercard as these are most widely recognized worldwide.
but just in case, u may research particular cty's cc acceptance habit beforehand.
and yes bring cards is of cos for payment lor, esp bigger ticket stuff like hotel. if tech exists, u can withdraw money from overseas atms too.
either way, lessen burden of lugging around so much hard cash.

maybe citibank rewards card is good if u buy clothes, bags, shoes overseas as it applies for overseas too. there's also many cards that are good i guess..
take note that each transaction u make..there'll be some admin fee of 1.5+0.5=2% deducted in addition to ur purchases (if im not wrong) so if ur items are not too ex, it might be better to change more cash..

master card and visa card are the ones that will surely be accepted worldwide although it is best that you state which country are you traveling to because i am sure that some members here might be locals and they might be able to give you better information regarding this topic. i do hope that you will be able to enjoy your trip and spend wisely!
