When I travel anywhere for more than 5 days, I typically just buy a local sim card when I land. Usually saves a lot of money.

Sure, people can't call me on my usual number, but I see that as an additional benefit. I'm on vacation.

If you’re traveling for work, not being able to use your usual number is a problem.

That's why many phones come with two SIM slots, and eSIM is starting to get popular ( on top of one or two physical slots). That way you can keep both your usual number and your local card in use simultaneously.
