Alright let’s face it – gifts are tough. And while it may currently be the middle of summer, the holidays will be here before you know it. If you are anything like me, that means endless hours of shopping, stressing, and struggling to find the perfect gift(s) for your friends and loved ones that are a mix of thoughtful and creative, without being tacky. If there’s a couple in your life that love to vacation and are always on the go, then this gift guide is for you! Here are my 4 perfect gifts for couples who love to travel.
1. Push Pin World Map
Any true travel lover knows that one of the most exciting things to do is check another destination off their bucket list. A push pin world map is a fun way to keep track of all the places you’ve visited, while displaying it in your home for everyone to see! One of the coolest gifts my husband and I have ever received was a framed push pin world map, with different colored pins to mark places that we have visited/ones we hope to visit someday. We have it displayed in our living room and it is always SO fun placing another pin on our map when we’ve explored some place new. Our map came from Etsy, but there are plenty of different versions available online (hello, Amazon) with options to customize as you please!
2. Bucket List Journal
Arguably one of the coolest gifts for travelers, bucket list journals allow you to write down and keep track of all your travel goals and future plans. Whether it’s snorkeling in the Caribbean or a cruise around the Mediterranean, travelers can record every detail of their vacation dreams – no matter how big or how small! These journals are also a fun way for couples to keep track of past trips, by jotting down those extra special moments and memories not to be forgotten.
3. Packing Cubes
Although it might not seem like the most exciting gift, travelers will appreciate packing cubes more than you know! Packing cubes are a great way to keep everything in your luggage organized, allowing you to share luggage with your partner, hassle free. Not only do they keep your things separated and organized, they also protect from any spills – keeping your clothes stain free while in transit. If you really want to impress that travel loving couple in your life, compression cubes go the extra mile by allowing you to save space and fit more into even the smallest of suitcases.
4. Selfie Stick
I know what you’re thinking, but hear me out – the selfie stick craze is something that every travel lover should get behind. Selfie sticks are a great way to get that perfect shot of you and the background, without needing someone else to take the picture. These can really come in handy for couples who are traveling to remote destinations, or sightseeing in some busy areas, as it allows for taking pictures of you and your partner with perfect ease. Selfie sticks also allow for you to get more of the background in your photo, meaning you don’t have to sacrifice any of your destinations beauty in that ”perfect shot.”
And there you have it – my 4 perfect gifts for couples who travel! This gift guide is perfect for the travel loving couple in your life and is sure to help you out the next time you’re stuck on what to give as a gift!
