You could do either. If your world adapter kit has a Type M you can use that. I usually bring a 220 volt rated standard power strip with US outlets and plug it in using the appropriate adapter for the country I am visiting. You need to check the specs of the power strip to make sure it is 220v rated (not all of them are), but otherwise this is an easy solution when you have multiple devices to plug it. Making sure all of the devices are 220v rated also, of course. But most computer and phone power sources are now.
