Mac App StoreYou can't just willy nilly change stores all over the world to get apps that you want. Even because you are on vacation.
To use a store you must be a legal resident of the country for which that store was created. Then you must provide a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a verifiable billing address in that country.
The other issue is that when you change stores you wipe out your previous Purchases List for the previous store. That complicates your home life when you get home and want to change the store back to your original store.

iCloudYou cannot change your app store unless you have a physical address in the country you are changing to as well as a bank card issued by a bank in that country.
Best of luck,
