Some of My Favorite Travel Gifts Right Now

Wednesday, November 27, 2024 15:06

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Usually I do an extensive travel gift list, and I probably still will, but right now I want to highlight some of my favorite things that I use and love and almost never travel without. There are a lot of cool things out there for traveling, and I have a lot of them, but I also travel with a few things over and over.

There are a lot of cool things out there for traveling, and I have a lot of them, but I also travel with a few things over and over. Here are my faves.

Whether you have a small budget or a larger one, there’s something for everyone on your list, but don’t forget to add things to your own wish list.

A 14-16″ Carry-On

As someone who hates to pack a lot and also travels alone at times, I don’t always travel with a full-size carry-on. In fact, I have several, because I want to be able to lift my own bag into the overhead, if possible. I have this Samantha Brown convertible roller bag, which was great for bringing back extra stuff we bought in Paris. I also have a very similar underseater to the Delsey Helium wheeled bag that fits quite a lot of stuff inside it, and is very easy to drag everywhere or carry up the stairs. $99-124

Zensah Compression Socks

I have poor circulation in my feet and walking all day or sitting on the plane for hours can cause my feet and ankles to swell and then make wearing shoes and using my feet for anything to be the worst. As we get older, we have different needs, and compression socks are a nice way to take care of your lower extremities and prevent swelling or blood clots and misery. I love Zensah, because you can get both long socks or just leg sleeves (for when you wear sandals with your pants or long skirts). $35.95-49.95

Nomatic Toiletry Bag

There are a lot of toiletry bags out there, but this one is a top contender. It is waterproof and has a lot of spill-proof pockets, so not only will it keep anything inside contained, nothing can get into it either, and you can have it with you in the shower or next to the sink with no worries. It’s expensive, but I believe it might be the last toiletry bag anyone ever needs. $74.99 for large version or $54.99 for small version and right now they are 30% off

If that bag isn’t in your price range, I understand. I also recommend this Travelon Wet Dry bag. There’s a compartment for your liquids and a compartment for everything else. It hangs and it’s easy to see everything inside all at once. I’ve even made it easier to pack by laying it flat and sliding it into my carry-on’s front pocket, saving space I needed for clothing and other items in the main compartment. $25, but you can save 20% with code SHEREENTRAVELS20% or purchase on Amazon

SpectraSpray

Keep them healthy and feeling great. There are natural sprays for everything, including those to make your travels way better. Purchase sprays individually, or ones that go together in a kit. They all have a very light flavor. Most are minty and the flavor dissipates pretty quickly. Personal faves include the Sleep Well Kit and the Daily Defense Kit $19.95+ use code SHEREENTRAVELS for an extra 5% off

Pop-up Mesh Laundry Basket

I almost never go anywhere without my laundry basket. It folds down fairly small and it allows me to put it in a corner of my room and use as a hamper until I’m ready to do laundry. Then I can just pick it up and cart it to the laundry room. These baskets come in a pack of two and have an outside pocket to keep your detergent and quarters in. I always recommend these. $16.99

Battery Back-up

When you’re out all day long and taking pics and posting to social media and using GPS and playing Pokemon Go (or whatever else you do on your phone), your battery is not going to last. I carry a big backup that will charge both of our phones twice during a day. This is especially great when we’re at theme parks or we’re on a a long flight. We survived off this battery on our flight to France, where we had a whole day layover in Baltimore (basically two days before we could charge up properly). It has 3 ports, so you could, conceivably, charge 3 devices at the same time. $23.95 + a $3 off coupon right now

Airplane Pockets

The seatback pocket on planes can be pretty gross and dirty and the tray table is one of the most touched surfaces on plane. Airplane Pockets are antibacterial and slip over your tray, so you have a clean surface to eat and play on. The other part of the pockets is the actual pockets. There is one big pocket and three smaller ones, to hold all your necessities and keep them organized. $29.99

FaceCradle Travel Pillow

You need a good travel pillow if you’re going to be flying long distances (or even if you’re taking a longer train trip or even a passenger in the back of a car. I will never stop touting the awesomeness of FaceCradle. I get such good sleep with this. Eric, who is a very light sleeper, also has gotten some of his best travel sleep with it. It allows you to stretch your neck and back, so you don’t wake up needing a massage. $69.99

Pursesuitz Pocket Travel Tank

If you missed my review on this, you’re missing out, because everybody should have one of these tanks – for travel, for walking, for exercise, for festivals. The pockets stay closed with a Velcro-like suction and keep all your belongings safe. This is where you can put your emergency cash, passport, and any other important thing you want to keep close to your body, all in an attractive tank. $59 – use code THANKS2024 by Dec 1 to save 25% off

Slim RFID-blocking Card Holder

I’m not a person who likes to carry around a big wallet. I just take the bare necessities, especially when I’m traveling. I have a slim RFID-blocking wallet that holds cards and cash. It takes up hardly any space and can slip into your pocket or your day bag. $7.99

Stay tuned for more travel gifts that will make your (or your loved one’s) 2025 and beyond even better.
