Travel Gift Ideas - Christmas Presents
Looking for travel gift ideas? Here are a few that make great
Christmas presents or just good old travel gifts.
Travel Gift Ideas
Whether for work or fun, people that travel a lot are easy to
buy for. There are simply a ton of gadgets and travel
accessories that can satisfy your need for travel gift ideas.
1. Dreamsacks - Okay, here's a nasty little secret about
traveling. Hotels don't always wash sheets and definitely don't
wash comforters. Yes, it creeps me out to think about it as
well. Dreamsacks are designed to keep the creepy crawly
bacteria, funguses and bugs off of you. Dreamsacks are
essentially sleeping bags made from sheets, to wit, they are
thin. Most even come with a built in pillow because if the
sheets are sketchy, one doesn't really want to even contemplate
the pillows. Dreamsacks will set you back between $40 and $60.
2. Relief Bands - Relief bands are the latest, greatest way to
stop motion sickness. If you've ever flown on Air Turbulence
Airlines, you'll know the immediate benefit of these bands. Worn
like a watch, relief bands send a small electronic shock into
the bottom of your wrist which counters the nausea impulse to
your brain. No, it doesn't hurt and it is a lot better than
getting intimate with those popcorn bags in airline seat backs.
Expect to pay between $60 and a couple hundred bucks depending
on how fashionable you want to look while bouncing around in
your seat. Good for boats and cars as well.
3. Japanese Paper Soap - Perhaps one of the greatest
travel
accessories ever made. For any traveler, bars of soap are a
disaster. They never stay in their cases or wrapping resulting
in soap suds and gunk everywhere. Japanese paper soap solves
this problem nicely. The paper is, well, paper, but has built in
soap. You simply get your hands wet and rub a piece of the paper
between them. Instant suds! When done, toss the paper out.
Pretty cool, eh? This incredible invention will set you back a
whopping $10 for 50 sheets. Heck, I use them at home.
4. Nomad Travel Journals - A little self-promotion here. Nomad
Travel Journals are compact writing journals that let travelers
keep notes about their trips. Really great for creating a record
of who was on the trip, things seen, people met, contact
information such as email address, phone numbers and so on. As
the years pass, you can read back through your travel journal to
relive trips and laugh yourself silly over funny events you
might otherwise forget. A tremendous gift for student travelers
and backpackers. You can click the link at the bottom of this
article to see the travel journals which cost $25 with case.
Shopping for the holidays can be stressful. If you're buying for
a traveler, any of the above gifts will be a hit.
