Whether you’re looking for a travel gift for your partner, friend, family member, or even yourself, there is something on this list for every type of world explorer. Valentine’s, Christmas, birthday, or just because… we’ve got you covered.
A Scratch Map
The Scratch Map is designed to allow you to visually record everywhere you go, making it the perfect gift for a world traveler. Scratch off each country you’ve traveled to together to make it extra special.

Door Stop Alarm
This gift grants solo travelers who may be staying at an Airbnb or hotel the feeling of security. The Door Stop Alarm is easy to install.

Kindle Paperwhite
Give the gift of reading with the Kindle Paperwhite. It is perfect for the GlobeHopper who loves reading just as much as they love to travel. The Kindle Paperwhite holds thousands of books with over 2 million to choose from on the Kindle website. It’s lightweight and waterproof, so there is no need to worry about getting it wet at the beach or pool.
The Wander Club Keychain
This classy keychain made from full-grain leather is a lovely memento for travelers. The tokens – made from stainless steel – can be engraved with all the places your gift receiver has been to. The company can also engrave dates on the back to personalize the token.
Portable Wi-Fi

Pocket Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizer doesn’t always have to smell like alcohol mixed with chemicals, and when you buy the pocket hand sanitizer from Noshinku, it won’t! These slim spray sanitizers come in four scents: eucalyptus, lavender, spice, and bergamot. Each pocket sprayer will give approximately 270 sprays before it needs refilling.
Cork Globe
Like the scratch map, the Cork Globe is a great visual way to see all of the places you or your gift receiver have explored. This cork globe from Suck UK has three sizes to choose from and comes with the first six red pins that will go on the globe.

Hush Blackout Eye Mask
