3Doodler Pen
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THESE PENS
Creativity is something I try to encourage in my kids. In fact, this summer they have written “Do something creative” on their daily To Do lists. This kit is compact enough that kids can bring with them as they travel. It is great for any ability and age level. We were given two pens. The first was the 3Doodler Start “Learn from Home” pen set. I love that it doesn’t have any external hot spots so it’s perfect for ages 6-13.
It also came with 200 additional strands of 3Doodler Start plastic refills.
The second pen we got was the 3Doodler Create “Learn from Home” pen set.
This set is perfect for ages 14+
It also included (includes 75 strands [3 packs] of plastic refills)
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
Their website is incredible. They give you lots of sample projects as well as free templates you can download. You can make anything with these pens…toys, candle holders, book marks, ornaments, coasters, pins, jewelry…and so much more!
My daughter made these fun glasses!
And I’m trying to make a flowered votive candle holder.
COST: 3Doodler Start “Learn from Home” pen set: $49.99
3Doodler Create “Learn from Home” pen set $79.99

SUNS Sneakers
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
Not only are these sneakers super comfortable, but my daughter loved that the color-changing shoes used the power of the sun to create vibrant colors and patterns that change before your eyes. They went from this color when inside…
To this after she stepped out in the sun!
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
There are lots of fun designs including polka dot, tie-dye, stars, camouflage and zebra print. You know I love a company that believes in philanthropy. Well, this brand is committed to giving back to the planet by planting trees for every pair sold.
COST: $60

Free & Fearless, by Philip Moser
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THIS BOOK
This book was both heartbreaking and inspirational and has stuck with me throughout the last few months. It is written by Philip Moser, about his adventures with his daughter, Brittany, that had Addison’s disease and chose to spend her time having adventures with her dad.
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Everyone should have a bucket list, and I actually have mine posted on my blog. I love that Brittany chose to complete her list with her father. As a parent, I can’t think of anything more flattering thing than when your child chooses to spend time with you. Even though he writes about the grief he suffered, he stresses the fact that we need to make the most out of what we are given and living our lives positively and not out of fear. It’s an incredible book.

Nabee Socks
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
I always wear compression socks when flying overnight or on long car rides, but the ones I have are so boring looking. These socks are ADORABLE and they have so many styles to choose from! I chose this cute argyle pink pair. I wore these socks when I worked out the other day and they never rode down, and were not too tight.
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
The quality of these socks can’t be beat. They are super comfortable, have a seamless toe, are breathable, and have extra arch support. There are so many reasons to wear compression socks:
For those who fly over five hours and wear compression socks, studies show that they had improved energy, alertness, concentration and sleep.
Compression socks also alleviate pain, fatigue and swelling while preventing spider and varicose veins.
For athletes, wearing compression socks during a workout give a higher rate of tissue recovery and less muscle soreness after.
COST: $30

Closca Water Bottle
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
I always try to carry a water bottle around with me and this bottle makes it so easy to do. It allows you to wear your bottle instead of carrying it because it attaches to so many things, like purse straps, backpacks, and even your bike.
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
I love that it has dual caps so you can add ice, fruit, and tea. The small opening (at the top) makes it easy to drink out of and the larger opening (on the bottom) makes it easy to clean. I also like that the rubber makes the bottle easy to grip when you’re holding it.
COST: 40€

Arcopedico Monterey Sandals
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
You know I’m always looking for good shoes when I’m traveling. I like to be able to walk on cobblestone streets, climb up hills, and then go to a nice dinner without having to change them. Monterey is one of Arcopedico’s top selling sandals. It features their Arne-Dry cushioned footbed which will keep your feet dry, well-ventilated and comfortable. These sandals will get you through an entire day of walking and you’ll STILL feel good.
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
Bedsides being super cute, these are comfortable and they stay on your feet. The elastic and suede uppers hold your foot n place and they offer great foot support. They come in purple, black, red, and biscuit. Almost all of the colors are leather, but I chose the biscuit color because it is 100% vegan.
COST: $95

Sonoma Wool Dish Drying Mat
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
I’m pretty anxious about the cleanliness of my room and if there is a kitchen area, I always wash my dishes and cups before using them. I always bring a foldable drying mat to make sure the surface area is clean as they dry. This Sonoma wool mat is impressive because it absorbs up to 30% of its own weight in water. It is also naturally resistant to mold and mildew.
WHAT ELSE I LOVE ABOUT THEM
Especially now, during time of COVID-19, travelers are especially careful about bringing their own supplies to hotels/rentals. This mat is a wonderful way to dry your dishes because they are made with 100% pure wool.
COST: Wool Dish Mat & Linen Sleeve: $39.99
Extra Linen Sleeve: $14.99
