Gifts for Travelers: Hurry Only 3 Days Left!
Earlier this week, I was the fortunate recipient of some great travel gifts, and I know other travelers would appreciate them as much I do.
- A nightlight. I usually bring night light with me when I travel, putting it into the bathroom, and making it a little easier to get around at night. I’m in so many different hotels that it’s sometimes hard to remember where I am, and having a night light just brings a little familiarity to my surroundings. I’ve had a plain standard light, and I’ve had a lava lamp night light. This week I received a gift of a new one ““ the front end of an airplane. It’s a design any traveler would love, or love to hate.
- Another gift was an adjustable multi-prong plus in. Okay, that’s probably not the technical name for it, but that’s a pretty good description of what it is. You can plug it into the electrical socket in the room, and it will swivel in whatever direction that you need it to. Then, you can plus in your stuff. There’s room to plug in your laptop, cell phone, mp3 player, and still have an extra. This little gem is going to be a permanent part of my packing essentials.
- Finally, I received a personalized calendar. A friend made a 2007 calendar using photographs of fun things that we had done together on layovers throughout this past year. I plan to hang it by my desk at home, where it will serve as a daily reminder of a great year and a wonderful friendship. Why don’t you dig out some favorite photos and make a calendar personalized for the traveler in your life?
Better hurry! There’s only three more shopping days left!
