How can I change a statement like どこへいきますか to mean "Where _should_ I go"?
Basically, what is the rule for changing a question into a request for advice?

Changing a question into a request for advice
All of the following could be used:

> "where should I go?"
>
> どこへ行{い}けばいいですか？  
>  どこへ行ったらいいですか？  
>  どこへ行くべきですか？
>
> "where should I go I wonder", sounds a little softer:
>
> どこへ行こうかな？  
>

According to [this blog
post](http://blog.hjenglish.com/shichua/articles/933113.html), there isn't a
lot of difference in meaning between `良{よ}い` and `いい`, but `良い` gives an
impression of being more formal and is more likely to be used in written form
and `いい` more likely to be used in spoken form. If in doubt, I think it's best
to stick to `いい`.
