The year is coming to an end and it’s time to think about gifts for your favorite travel lovers. Below is a list that I have assembled with my top budget-friendly ideas. Even better, I don’t just think that these are great finds for you, but I own some of them too! So shop for others or just yourself…I won’t judge!
Budget-Friendly Ideas for Travelers
We all have had moments where we did not know how much our luggage weighed before arriving at the airport. Holding our breath while waiting for the scale to tell us if we are within the limits is a stressful time. There is an easy fix for this. A portable luggage scale can easily fit anywhere in your luggage, without adding too much weight.
My next find is a portable battery charger. We probably all have some version of this handy tool to keep our phones charged while we’re traveling but this charger seems to be a step up. It comes with a foldable plug, built-in cables, and a LED display.
With so much luggage being lost or delayed, many of us have resorted to traveling as lightly as possible. With minimal clothing available, how can we make that small wardrobe last for an extended period of time? We can wash our clothes in the sink! There are products that are made specifically for washing clothes in this way.
Travel in Style
Another travel hack is to have the right backpack that is stylish & can keep your property protected. The following pack has a special feature where the zipper pouch is flat on your back, so while it’s being worn, pickpocketers are unable to unzip your bag in large crowds, in lines, etc. I have had this backpack for a few years and I absolutely love it. It also comes in a variety of colors so you can find the style that works for you!
Keeping your items safe is an important part of travel and I have found another way to do this in a fashionable way. This travel scarf has two hidden compartments to stash your emergency cash, credit card, or important documents. It also has snaps that allow it to be used as a travel blanket or wrap.
Now it’s time to ditch the traditional travel pillow. Look at this Trtl pillow! It takes up less space & is lightweight. It looks so comfortable. It’s purported to be scientifically proven to keep your head in a better ergonomic position for sleeping while in a seated position.
Traveling with a Partner
This next item looks so interesting, I immediately added it to my cart! It’s a BlueTooth transmitter. It will allow you to pair two BlueTooth headphones together so you can both listen to the same music or show simultaneously. It also has an adapter so you will be able to hook up to the in-flight entertainment options even if you do not have corded headphones. Honestly had no idea this product existed.
My Favorite Travel Item
My final item is my absolute favorite travel find! This flexible phone stand has been a game-changer for me. It can bend into any position or shape that fits your needs and can hang from many locations so you can watch hands-free.
