5 Easy Gifts for the Traveler in Your Life

This time last year I was gearing up for my adventure abroad. I made list after list of places to see and things to bring. Now, this time i'm watching my cousin and friends do the same. It's amazing how much time has passed from the moment I excitedly handed in my visa - to the moment I touched down in the United States exhausted.

Through out all of my travels (no matter how big or small) there were a few essentials that I'm grateful I had. So, if you have a little traveler in your life here are my 5 must haves that are the perfect gifts to help them out with their journeys.

 Yes, money is always appreciated but with the holidays approaching quickly you can gift them something extra this holiday season!

                                          

Passport Holder 

More necessary than you think! If you keep your passport and tickets in here at all times you wont misplace them. Easy and convenient, you'll have your required documents right at your finger tips. This one is from Etsy found here

International Charger

It's best to pack more than one. They could break, get lost in transit, or forgotten all together in a hostel. How else are you going to take epic pics and selfies if your phone is dead? You can find these everywhere from Target to BestBuy. There's a two pack on amazon here!

Travel Duffel Bag

You might be thinking getting a rolling carry on is the way to go but - be careful. Flying budget airlines have requirements for how big something can be and often times the wheel or extra pockets are too bulky to fit as a carry on. It's easy to move the duffel bag underneath a bed, seat, or right on your lap when shuffling from one form of transportation to another. If you're looking to invest in a durable one Macy's has a sale going on, the bag pictured here is the Steve Madden Nylon Duffel found here at Macy's

RFID Travel Wallet

RFID is Radio Frequency Identification, wallets and products lie these help protect any electronic data your credit cards have. It's gained by having a hand held device that scans the information in your wallet by passing by. You can find these anywhere on Amazon, I forget which one I had but the zipper and inner compartments helped me keep organized!

A Travel Journal 

This is the perfect stocking stuffer or present topper for your traveler! It's the perfect way to keep track of any adventure they go on. Writing is one of the best ways to remember events and places! There's a unique scratch off one from uncommon goods found right here! It's lightweight and is a breeze to carry around. 

These are the basic things any traveler will need or use at some point. So help them out, get them something that'll last longer than the cash you put in their holiday card :)

Happy Holidays and safe Travels xx
