We all know someone who is constantly jet setting around the world, visiting exotic places and living life to the fullest. What can you even get this person as a gift that could compare to the wonderful sights they have seen? There’s not a whole lot that does compare to the beauties of this world, but here are some ideas that center around your friend’s number one love: travel.

1. CHARGING CORD BRACELET

No matter where someone is in the world, their phone will inevitably run out of battery. Do them a solid, and get them a super convenient charging cord bracelet by Torro. The Torro bracelet is super easy to use: just plug it into a USB port, and you’re good to go! It also doubles as a fashionable wrist accessory, too.

2. WELLNESS PATCH

We all get a little anxious sometimes, especially when flying. Help your friend relax on their journey around the world with these hemp-infused wellness patches from The Good Patch. They come in a variety of remedies and can be placed virtually anywhere on the body for approximately 12 hours.

3. CARRY-ON COCKTAIL KIT

Everyone likes a little cocktail while they’re 30,000 feet in the air. This Carry On Cocktail Kit from W&P is TSA-compliant and comes in a wide selection of boozy drinks like Moscow Mule and Margarita. Just add alcohol and you’re all set to mix!

4. PERSONALIZED GIFT

You’re in San Francisco, and your friend is across the country in New York. What on earth can you get them when you’re thousands of miles apart? Well, we have a solution. With our Gifting Assistant service, you can send your friend a personalized gift right to their door. Just let us know some basic information like your budget and any products he or she might like, and we will take care of the rest.

5. TRAVEL JOURNAL

Your best friend is about to embark on the trip of a lifetime, so help them capture some quality memories with a travel journal. We recommend the Travelogue Travel Journal, as it allows you to record every step of your journey through diary entries and an interactive map featuring removable foil. They are sure to never forget all of the wonderful places they have been in the world.

6. HIGH-TECH WATER BOTTLE

Staying hydrated while on-the-go is extremely important, and the Closca Bottle is here to help. This high-tech water bottle is especially great for travelers, as it connects to an app on your phone that lets you know where the nearest fill station is. In addition, it is airport security approved, and it can be attached to a backpack, bike, or stroller.

7. INTIMATE RITUAL KIT

If your relationship to your globe trotter is a little more than just a friendship, then the intimate ritual travel kit from Rosebud Woman is the perfect gift. This kit includes an array of travel-sized goodies to help your lady get in touch with her mind and body on an intimate level. Talk about hot.

8. HOMESICK CANDLE

Chances are, your friend might be feeling a little homesick while abroad. The Homesick Candle will remind them of the love that awaits when they return. Each candle comes in a nostalgic, signature scent that will instantly remind them of the city, state, or country they call home. How beautiful is that?

It is tough trying to figure out what to get someone who has been everywhere and seen it all. With that being said, we hope this guide has made your decision a bit easier. And, to your friend; we bid them safe travels!
