As a traveler myself, I know the struggle of trying to gift a traveler a present. Clothes - they don’t have anywhere to put them. Home decor - forget about it. Travel poster with push pins to track their previous trips - nope, they have one already. So how can you get the perfect present for the adventurer you love? Well lucky day, I’m here to help! From digital nomads to van-lifers, I got some amazing presents that any traveler will be obsessed with. With that, let’s get into it.
Experiences Over Things
If your adventure lover is anything like me, they prefer experiences over things. Here are some fun but unique ideas.
Tinggly Experience Boxes: Flexible gift boxes that allows you to choose activities from different price tiers like hot air ballooning, diving, or city tours.
Airbnb Experiences: AirBnb isn’t just accommodation! They also have unique local adventures, from cooking classes to guided hikes.
The Road Tripper
Whether they love winding through scenic highways, exploring off-the-beaten-path destinations, or simply the freedom of the open road, these gifts are perfect for road trip lovers or van-lifers:
National Park Annual Pass: Perfect for nature lovers and road trippers.
Audiobook or Podcast Subscriptions: Services like Audible or Spotify Premium for endless listening options during long stretches.
Solar-Powered Phone Charger: Keeps devices charged even when off the grid
The Culture-Seeker Traveler
Language Learning Apps or Courses: Duolingo Plus, Babbel, or Rosetta Stone subscriptions to prep for international trips.
Photography Classes: Online courses in travel photography to capture memories beautifully.
Cooking Classes: Virtual or in-person classes focusing on cuisines from their favorite destinations.
The International Lover
Packing Cubes: these are great for suitcases or even just carry ons. Super easy to store things separately so you know where everything is at all times.
New Suitcase and carry-on set: Simple upgrade from soft suitcases, and perfect for the travelers who need a little upgrade and want to protect their items
Global eSIM Card or Wi-Fi Hotspot: Stay connected anywhere in the world.
Airplane Bluetooth Adapter: Does your traveler-lover have bluetooth headphones and can’t watch movies on the plane without those awful headphones? That no more! This is a MUST HAVE when flying international
Misc. Stocking Stuffers
Airplane Phone Holders: there’s a bunch on Amazon from flexflap to just a plastic phone holder that attaches to the tray table on a plane. These are great for those who love to watch shows while traveling, and even works in cars!
Electrolyte Packs: These are my FAVORITE for flights and afterwards. Helps keep your traveler hydrated without using the bathroom every 20 minutes, so you can feel refreshed after your flights. And great for a long travel day or while exploring the new town.
Universal Power Adapter: travel to any country with ease with this power adapter!
That is everything I recommend! While there are so many options and things out there to buy, I wanted to make this to make it more simplified, yet less consumerism-focused. More about the experiences and less about the stuff.
If you need any recommendations for any other type of traveler, please send me a message @alexseeksmore on IG! I’d be more than happy to help shop for your loved one.
Whether it’s high-quality clothing, small brand swim suits, ethically made travel-sized body wash, and more, my experience traveling and passion to help save the planet for the past 8 years has helped me hone in on must-haves.
