2 years ago, on my Around the World trip, I wrote this list detailing my favorite travel things. And anyone who has ever traveled with me will tell you, I don’t board a plane without those items. Ear plugs, tiger balm, sleep sack, Kindle…each of the items on that list is a travel must* for me.
So if those are the items I need, here is a list of the items I simply love. For form, function, beauty and whimsy, here are the Top 5 items I love right now – which make perfect gifts for jetsetter Valentines:
- ONE – pink and white striped laundry bag from Etsy; perfect size to fold up into your carry on and fill along the way {$22.50}
- TWO – Cheeky travel pouch from Flight 001; I use for all of my plugs, adapters & cords – perfect for cosmetics, toiletries, jewelry, and of course – medication! {$16}
- THREE – Passport holder + wallet from Tory Burch. Perfect size to hold my credit cards, cash, itinerary + passport all in one place; the color pops making it easy to find in my purse! This is my new favorite travel accessory. {$135}
- FOUR – iPhone backup battery from J. Crew. Just what you need to give your iPhone a few more hours of life. I received one this year as a holiday gift from 2 of A’s nieces and it has been a lifesaver for traveling! {$39.50}
- FIVE – tiny speaker with big sound available from Amazon; perfectly portable with great sound for listening to music with friends on trips – and a great value at {$16}
*aside from the Lush Shampoo which is reserved for backpacking trips)
