Gifts for the Travel Enthusiast

I love my NapAnywhere Pillow! With an injured neck, this pillow cradles my head in a very relaxed manner and allows me to sleep literally anywhere – on a plane, on the boat or in the car. With a slim profile, this pillow slides into its bag and then I can tuck it into my travel bag.

My Loctote Flak Sack Sport has revolutionized my travel! When we go to the beach, I just drop our ipads / kindles & iphones in the Loctote, and lock it to my chair or lounge. We can swim or sail without worry that our electronics will be stolen. The lock is a beefy brass lock, and the material of the tote is slash proof. An indispensable gift for the travel enthusiast!

Speaking of beach time, we could not live without our Engel Tumblers! These go with us in the car, on the boat, and to the beach. They keep cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot all day long. Definitely a necessity for us on those hot days spent on the boat, or when I am running errands around town.

2017 found us transitioning from our Sony DSLR to the Canon T5 Rebel. The Canon T5 is a much easier camera for me to shoot with because it has a great viewfinder. Jim, on the other hand, loves to shoot without the viewfinder. So the Canon works for both of us. We also like the fact that if we frame our shots well we do not have to edit our photos.

The Samsonite Freeform 21″ Carry On Spinner Suitcase has been a lifesaver for me! With my bad back it is really difficult to travel with just a carryon when I am traveling solo. But with this bag, I have traveled solo to Washington, DC for a week and to Roswell, GA for a long weekend. The Samsonite Freeform holds all of your necessary clothing for a week or a long weekend. And on both trips I had no trouble at all with the weight of this bag fully packed. I highly recommend this bag for solo travelers!

TRAVEL GADGETS

As travelers, we are always using our phones for notes and pictures and they never seem to hold a charge all day long. Rather than getting all stressed out about running out of battery, bring a portable charger with you. We love the Anker PowerCore 1000 because it is reliable, and it is small enough to fit in my purse without weighing it down.

How many times have you arrived at your hotel only to discover that there are not enough power outlets to charge your electronics? That's why we love the iClever Boost Strip. No matter where we are – traveling, at a conference, or on the boat, we always have enough outlets to charge all of our electronics! Our iClever has traveled with us to Barbados, Jamaica, Bahamas and around the USA.
