Travel gifts 2015

Time passes so quickly... with all good and  not so good memories it's the last moment to find some presents for yourself or your friend who loves travels... Below you can find my list of choices of this year:


  1. Personalized With Love from Kat Passport Cover, $68,saksfifthavenue.com
  2. Biaggi Zipsack. This ingenious lightweight, spacious four-wheel "spinner" luggage folds to the size of a small briefcase when not in use. The 22" Zipsack can hold a week's worth of clothing, pulls easily with enclosed strap, and comes in hot new colors. It's an invaluable travel essential for your favorite globetrotter, especially one who's low on space. $70, biaggi.com
  3. Solar Media Player. A mobile solar charger, power bank and speakers for your smart phone all in one, the Solar Media Player is both highly functional and easy to use. Water and sand resistant, it's perfect for the sunny beach (where you can charge rather than drainyour phone's battery) or camping. $50.
  4. Filtered water bottles from http://www.waterbobble.com/
  5.  mighty wallet - Tyvek, it’s extremely durable, super thin, and even somewhat waterproof  – perfect qualities for a travel wallet. Plus, you can pick from an array of cool designs on their website, or if you’re an artist, create your own.
  6. Inflatable Hoodie Pillows - No words needed. This looks so comfy! I’ve never tried it out, but I know I wouldn’t mind having it with me especially on a long international flight! I’m sure many other travelers would agree! (P.S. it also comes in other colors too!) Inflatable Pillow with Hoodie
  7. KINDLE PAPERWHITE - GRAB THE ABSOLUTE BEST E-READER ON THE MARKET AND HAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD’S LIBRARY AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.
