All I Want For Christmas

Posted on November 23, 2020November 23, 2020

What I really want is to travel again but even Santa cannot make that happen, yet. So to appease the traveler in your circle of family and friends, and to make your shopping even easier during the pandemic, consider one of our favourite gadgets which are all available to order online.

  1. Travel Journals to record and capture your thoughts and memories are a meaningful but affordable gift. Although there are numerous options we liked this one which includes daily prompts and quotes about travel. https://www.amazon.ca/Fill-Your-Life-Adventures-Things/dp/1723078077/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130015&sr=8-8

  1. Universal Travel Adapter. This all in one option that includes plugs for a variety of destinations and a handy travel case. https://www.amazon.ca/SZROBOY-Universal-International-Worldwide-business/dp/B07QKFNRXG/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130211&sr=8-6

  1. Toiletry Bags are the handiest thing to organize your cosmetics and other personal items. The best option is one that can hang as it helps to alleviate clutter in small staterooms or hotel bathrooms in Europe.  We have the ones from LL Bean that can be personalized with your name or initials and come with a lifetime guarantee. This is a US company however so there is exchange and duty to deal with even though they will ship to Canada.    https://www.llbean.ca/shop/Toiletry-Bags/507361

 

  1. A foldable lightweight Backpack for day trips is a great option. It is easily carried in your suitcase so that you don’t have to carry a full size one or use a purse that does not leave your hands free while touring.  https://www.amazon.ca/ZOMAKE-Waterproof-Lightweight-Packable-UltraLight/dp/B01DNGEORW/ref=sr_1_15?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130211&sr=8-15

 

  1. Security is an important consideration when travelling and there are a number of great items that will help to protect your passport, cash and other valuables from pickpockets and loss.  I would recommend you consider a passport holder, either to be worn around your neck; https://www.amazon.ca/Venture-Passport-Holder-Pouch-Blocking/dp/B014UULU7M/ref=sr_1_35?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130211&sr=8-35  or waist;  https://www.amazon.ca/MoKo-Undercover-Blocking-Anti-Theft-Passport/dp/B01N6C04KB/ref=sr_1_24?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130211&sr=8-24 ).   Alternately you can consider an anti-theft shoulder back.  The straps are impossible to cut through and it can be worn across the body to leave your hands free.  This is also a great alternative to a backpack, which may have to be checked when visiting museums and galleries.  https://www.amazon.ca/Travelon-Anti-Theft-Classic-Shoulder-Black/dp/B005AIIPLS/ref=sr_1_66?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603130211&sr=8-66.

  1. Electronics are an inescapable travel companion.  Keeping the cords, chargers, and other devices under control and together is as easy as a good organizer. If you have lots consider this option;

https://www.amazon.ca/BAGSMART-Double-layer-Travel-Organizer-Chargers/dp/B01MZ93SUQ/ref=sr_1_115?dchild=1&keywords=gifts+for+travelers&qid=1603131415&sr=8-115

Or for something smaller; https://www.amazon.ca/BAGSMART-Small-Travel-Electronic-Accessories/dp/B017SKRWL4/ref=sr_1_34?crid=1EPRYDTD5GGMC&dchild=1&keywords=top+gadgets+for+men&qid=1604929980&sprefix=top+gadegets%2Caps%2C180&sr=8-34

  1. Although your camera and phone will record the visual memories you can also get a good microphone to attach to your cell phone in order to professionally record your comments over your videos.  These are designed to reduce wind and other interference.  https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B085SX2VW2/ref=ewc_pr_img_3?smid=A3JZ3LR9HMQNC0&psc=1

 

Still not sure if you have everyone on your list covered?  Here is a list of classic stocking stuffers for travelers;

  • Reusable travel size containers
  • Luggage tags and identifiers
  • Rechargeable battery packs
  • Good quality ear buds
  • Sunscreen and lip balm with high SPF coverage
  • Picture frames
  • Foreign currency
  • Guidebooks and videos

Merry Christmas and Happy Travels in 2021!!

I travel because I need to….because my wild, adventurous spirit can’t live according to the “norm”. I travel to regroup, to reinvent myself, to be the best me I can be, to find joy in the ordinary and peace in exploring. I travel to be.
