What this category can and cannot solve

An AC strip brings the wall supply to several outlets. It must be rated for the local voltage and for the sum of actual connected loads, with protective earth preserved where needed. A travel adapter plus a domestic-only strip can create a misleading fit. Ask the strip maker about international use and avoid stacking multiple adapters.
