Other great backpacks to give to travellers

Other gifts that travellers like

  • Travel insurance – necessary, yet I hope you’ll never need it.
  • Money – as simple as that. To use for skydiving, kayaking, snorkeling, equipment, …
  • Time spent together – not via skype – put your phones down and open a bottle of wine or tequila.
  • Voucher for postcards – upload a photo, type in your message and they’ll print and post it for you. There are many companies out there, I prefer Touchnote
  • Pay for their visa – those can be quite expensive

Things that are completely useless

  • Passport covers, you’ll have to take it out again and again when they check your ID and at the borders, they don’t like them at all. I prefer a small pouch where I also put my frequent flyer card and boarding passes.
  • Vouchers for a certain airline – I don’t want to be stuck with one airline. I want to travel the cheapest and most convenient.
  • Anything with “Not all those who wander are lost” – seen too many times already.

What are your gift tips for Christmas, birthdays and others?

Viktoria Urbanek Travel Blog Chronic Wanderlust

Grüß dich, I'm Viki!

At Chronic Wanderlust, I write about my two great passions: travelling and diving – and have been doing so since 2013.

I usually spend a solid majority of the year travelling to experience extraordinary underwater adventures, taking road trips through countries I don’t know (yet) or exploring my home country of Austria.

As a certified divemaster, passionate underwater & travel photographer, road trip enthusiast and individual traveller, I collect unique moments all over the world.

I don’t believe that severe cases of wanderlust – aka chronic wanderlust – can be cured, only treated. On this blog, I want to show you how this can best be realised.

Curious to get to know me better?
