"The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value." - Charles Dudley Warner
We all know that this year has been unusual for travel lovers. You may be thinking that it doesn’t make sense to keep travel gadgets or long-haul flight needs on your holiday list, but we respectfully disagree! We think that giving or receiving a travel-related gift can spread excitement for future travels (even if they may not be as soon as we’d like)…And we can all use a little bit of excitement these days!
Read on for some of our favorite holiday gift ideas for travel lovers in 2020 whether you are stuck home or traveling!
Travel gifts for the home:
1. A Try The World Box: So, we can’t indulge in delicious international foods as much as we may like, but with these boxes, you’ll receive a kit with ingredients and instructions to make international favorites or delicious snacks from all over the world. Either option would make a great gift for a traveling foodie!
2. Travel scratch-off items: We love the satisfaction of a good scratch-off product! The scratch-off maps from WayPoint Wanders are a favorite because they come out looking like a work of art. If you want something a little more practical, check out this mug that is similar!
3. A travel-inspired piece of art: For the person stuck working from home, looking at a beautiful art piece may be helpful for inspiring some wanderlust! We love this one because of the unique chalkboard look.
4. Coaster set: Having these in our house certainly makes us happy, so we think other travel-lovers would also enjoy them as a reminder to “never stop exploring!” (You know...Unless there's a global pandemic).
5. A piece of Dune Jewelry: We think the best gifts remind someone of a memory or experience. With beautiful jewelry pieces from Dune, you can choose to incorporate sand or elements from all over the world! It’s a great way to give the gift of a memory.
Travel gifts for actual travel
1. Customized passport holder: We have given this gift before, and it was a hit! These passport holders are made of genuine, high-quality leather, and you can customize the saying on the outside. Ours said, “Not all who wander are lost.”
2. Our favorite carry-on: After trying out more carry-on bags than we care to share, this one has come out on top for us! The Delsey Rolling Under-Seat tote is the right mix of lots of storage space with the ability to still fit under the airplane seat in front of you. We think any traveler would get lots of use out of it.
3. Travel-safe clothing: For the safety-conscious traveler, we love products that come with a hidden pocket for your valuables. Some current favorites include the Waypoint Goods infinity scarf and the Splice Clothing line.
4. CrazyCap Water Bottle: Drinking water from public sources like water fountains can be a little bit nerve-wracking if you are new to a destination. This water bottle includes UV technology that purifies your drinking water no matter where you are, and it looks great doing it! Another great option for this same purpose is the Lifestraw bottle.
5. Anker Power Bank: Is anything worse than running out of power while out and about exploring? This may not be a “glamorous” gift, but you can bet they will get great use out of it in the future!
