Gift Guide For The World Traveler

Around the World, Travel, Travel Tips · November 14, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Hello friends! It’s that time of the year when shopping goes into overdrive and we’re all out there trying to figure out what to gift all our favorite people. I’m taking a new approach to gifting this year – something that fits into 4 distinct categories: WANT, NEED, WEAR, READ. If you have a traveler in your life, I’m sharing all the things I love the most when I’m taking trains, planes and automobiles to my next destination. I happen to own all of the products on this list, so I can vouch that they are worth the spend and any traveler in your life is sure to appreciate the thoughtful gesture. Now, let’s get started with this year’s gift guide for the traveler!

Gift Guide For The World Traveler

Magazine Subscription – Giving the gift of magazines is probably one of my favorite gifts. It’s kind of unexpected and truly is the gift that keeps on giving, as recipients can enjoy it throughout the year! I recommend Travel + Leisure or Conde Nast Traveler!

Carry-on Rolling Suitcase – I think I made my love for Genius Pack apparent in this post, but just in case – YOU NEED ONE IN YOUR LIFE. I am a chronic over packer and I managed to fit everything I needed (and probably more) into this 21 inch roller carry on. It has amazing space for organizing, comes with a durable exterior and there’s even a packing list printed on the inside so you don’t forget anything. If there’s one thing any traveler needs on this list – it’s this.

Travel-Sized FOREO Facial Brush – I’m the traveler that freaks about skincare-on-the-go so FOREO creating this mini travel brush is a stroke of genius! It’s a MUST for any fellow facial cleansing addicts!
Hydro Flask – What is there to say about the best water bottle on the planet? Oh yeah – EVERYONE NEEDS ONE. Whether you’re filling it with water, alcohol, soup, cocoa or beyond it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. I’ve had ice last up to three days in mine and it’s a travel lovers dream to sip from these bright bottles, cups and thermoses. Stock up in every shade!
Customized Map – Mapiful is a favorite of mine and has been a gifting go-to for friends and family. We love that you can completely customize your gifts
GoPro – This one is definitely a bit of a splurge (so save it for your FAVE), but with the capability to take both hi-res photo and video, it’s the ideal gift for someone seeking an all-in-one style camera. It’s compact size and endless accessories are just icing on the cake!
Travel Journal – Who doesn’t want to document their adventures in a fun + unique way? Bonus points to this specific journal for encouraging users to explore the easily overlooked and wonderful everyday details encountered while traveling!
City Map Glass – These city map glasses come in a variety of cities and are perfect for those folks who have a ton of pride for their city!
Cork Globe – I don’t know about you, but documenting our travels is something Dane and I love to do, so finding this cork globe that not only looks great, but holds special meaning was a home decor SCORE!
Cell Phone Camera Clip-On – This is great for those avid photographers that might not want to lug around their DSLR all the time. It’s especially good for up close shots and there are options for wide angle!
Packing Cubes – Have a traveler in your life who could use a bit more organization? (ahem…me) These are perfect for making sure everything stays in its designated space and you don’t wind up sitting on your suitcase to close it!

Noise Canceling Headphones – Raise your hand if you’ve been on a plane or train with noisy passengers. Enough said!

Mobile Card Reader – On the go and want to look at the photos from your big camera, but no time to power up your laptop? Have no fear, this mobile card reader is here!

Cord Organizer – There is nothing worse than getting your cords in a tangle while on the road, so this handy little organizer is for those of us who travel with a surplus of cords, chargers and plugs. For $20, you can’t beat it!

For all my fellow travel fiends – what did I miss? What is your go-to travel gift?
