I have this black sneackers with me that have been my best friend for more than a year on the road. I do wish to look more stylish time to time, especially when I'm wearing my cotton summer dress, especially when we go to fancy restaurants or theatres. Yep, during backpacking. We watched Ballet at the Paris Opera for example. But man.... with walking extensively instead of taking rides, it's becoming painful after a while! So yeah, most of the times I stick with my casual sneackers. Very rarely use the girly ones! I'm now looking for something look nice but compact and comfy. .-= Dina´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.vagabondquest.com/japan/friday-photo-kyoto-imperial-palaces-beauty-secret/" rel="nofollow">Friday Photo: Kyoto Imperial Palace’s Beauty Secret</a> =-.

I'm ensuring I wear my walking shoes in before leaving for Europe as I'm only taking them and a pair of flip flops. The last thing you want as a traveller is sore feat. Good tips Sabrina.

I'll keep them in mind. Also one thing I've learned is to make sure to check the weather before deciding what footwear to use. One time in DC, i wore my boots (those that can get wet) and it rained hard. My boots were soaking wet and even my feet got wet. Good thing I had extra shoes in the car otherwise I'd be walking with wet feet. Nice tips! I’ll keep them in mind.
