Christmas Gift Ideas for Every Travel Lover!

Do I dare say the C word? When some of you are probably reading this on a hot tropical island (where was our invite?). Well, I’m going to – CHRISTMAS!

1. AeroPress Portable Coffee Maker

Let’s be honest, there isn’t any country in the world we arrive in and don’t need a cup of the golden stuff pretty swiftly. But the likelihood of that happening is slim in many of them. Solution? Bring your own coffee maker that fits in your backpack. No more coffee problems, just coffee happiness.

2. Conversation Starter Cards

What do you do to while away the lonely hours in airports, hostel, dorms or trains filled with strangers? Grab them and start a game of travel questions that’s what. With these conversation starter cards, you don’t even have to come up with topics yourself! All it takes for strangers to become friends is an inspiring conversation, and all good conversations start with a good question! Plus, anything that is designed to getting people thinking and talking meaningfully sounds like a great gift to us.

3. Portable Organiser

The ultimate gift for the OCD ones among us. Pockets, straps, compartments and holders to fit everything from your passport to your portable charger. What more could you want?

4. SteriPen

Never sure whether it is safe to drink the water from the tap in the country you’re in? There is no need to even check if you have one of these in your backpack. The SteriPen eliminates over 99.9% of bacteria, viruses and protozoa that cause water-borne illness. Just pop it into your water bottle and within 48 seconds the water will be safe to drink. Plus, weighing in at only 2.6 ounces, it is the world’s smallest and lightest UV water purifier.

5. Camping Sleeping Bag

8. E-book Reader

9. What Christmas gifts does Workaway want?

Because between us we have 346 years of travel experience. (Obviously that is not 100% correct, but we calculate it to be somewhere close to that..) 

Hey, Mr Workaway (aka David, Workaway Founder) whatcha want Santa to bring you?

*Shouts across the office*
Alicia (our Design and Social Media whiz) what about you?

Also we have Alex here, our Workaway techie! What’d you like for X’mas?

‘Since visiting Colombia and snorkelling in the Caribbean last year, the trip has really opened up a whole new world for me. I want a good waterproof camera to capture the amazing underwater world.’

10. A year of meaningful travel experience

What if none of the above excites you? Yes, we do have a plan B!

No matter where you’ll be spending your Christmas in the world (home or afar), always remember to be grateful for all that you have. ❤️🎄✨
