It’s that time of year again for my annual Holiday Gifts for Travelers Guide! We all know 2020 has been hella’ rough on all of our souls and passports, so why not cheer up your favorite traveler with one of these unique gifts?

holiday gifts for travelers who couldn't travel in 2020

All of these items will be directly supporting a small business in need (mine!). They are either from my shop, a service/trip I offer, or an affiliate link! Thank you so much for helping this small wanderlust biz stay alive!

Gifts for Travelers From My Shop!

First up in my gift guide for travelers, are these cute, unique, travel themed jewelry items! I started this shop from one of the strictest lockdowns in world in Spain, and am proud to say it helped keep my business running while travel was banned! Thanks for your support!

Featured Product: KimTrue Antibacterial Hand Sanitizer with Aloe

This year it’s ’tis the season to stay sanitary. So for the traveler who has been patiently awaiting the end of the pandemic, here’s a great option! KimTrue is an eco-conscious beauty line, and this is their latest product; hand sanitizer that also contains moisturizer!

It also comes in a larger bottle with pump, encouraging use for multiple people, and less plastic wasted on mini bottles!

Online Courses

Because education is the best gift…next to travel 😉 These courses are great gifts for travelers because it will teach them everything they need to know to work remotely like I do! Whether it’s getting a side hustle and working for someone else (Wanderlust Workers), or turning their passion into a career and becoming their own boss (Be Your Own Boss)!

These two courses include ever skill, technique, and secret that I learned and used to go from full time freelance worker, to full time business owner!

Sustainable Swimsuits

Also during lockdown, I designed and ordered my very own line of sustainable swimsuits! They’re ethically made in Bali using material created from recycled sea waste, plastic bottles, and yarn! The prints represent some of my favorite destinations in the world!

Featured Product: Chloe Colette Chic Travel Apparel

Brag-Worthy Amazon Gifts for Travelers

Here’s some fun and fancy gifts for travelers that you can get from Amazon! From camera gear and picnic equipment for capturing local adventures, to unique travel decor to remind you of your wanderlust!

Cameras & Electronics

These are my recommendations for the best quality for price cameras and electronics. DJI has a great Black Friday sale going on right now, and you can get their products for even cheaper on Amazon!

If you’re in the market for a new laptop that’s perfect for travel, I’d 100% recommend the Google Pixelbook! I’ve been using it as my only computer for over a year now, and I absolutely love it! The only thing it doesn’t have is LightRoom for desktop.

For Nearby Adventures

With most travel lovers opting to stay close to home right now, it’s important to remember that there are still adventures nearby! These adorable picnic kits will inspire hikes and outdoor time, plus they make for great photos! Or use this mini projector to set up an outdoor movie night!

Oh and the jade face roller is to keep you calm and collected until travel resumes regularly again.

Travel Decor

If you miss looking at maps and packing your bags, check out these cute travel decor ideas and inspo! From a suitcase-piggy-bank, to massive wall decal of a map, and even travel themed throw pillows for anywhere in your home!

For Entertainment Purposes

If they couldn’t float on oversized unicorns and flamingos, at least get them one for their drinks! Didn’t need a suitcase? Get them one the size of a purse! And let’s not forget, for all those non-existent tropical tans….there’s the best micromist self tanner on the planet!

The Gift of TRAVEL in 2021!

Obviously the BEST gifts for travelers….are the gifts of TRAVEL! This year I’m offering the option to pay the deposit for someone wanting to go on any of my 2021 Group Trips (all with extremely flexibly Covid cancellation policies, plus strict covid safety measures!).

Of course, you’ll want to make sure that they’re down to pay the rest, but getting a deposit put down is the best way to get them motivated! Please be sure to email mylifesatraveltribe@gmail.com with your name, and the name of who your sending on a trip of a lifetime!!!

Quirky, must-have holiday gifts for travelers who couldn't travel in 2020! From map themed literally anything, to a purse in the shape of luggage (since you won't be using the actual luggage this year). These holiday gifts for travelers are sure to brighten their day!

  • Samarkand the second time was even more magical! Since I went here last year, they’ve now started doing these “flying dress” photoshoots at Registan Square for around $67, which was definitely worth it! Go super early (6:30-8) to avoid anyone in your photos AND to avoid annoying other travelers trying to take photos 😬 We also got a few group pics with the Travel Tribe! It’s definitely been extremely fun being here a second time with them!! Photography company tagged as a collaborator! Would you do this or nah? ——— Uzbekistan, Registan Square, Samarkand, group trips, solo female traveler, mylifesatravelmovie, Alyssa Ramos
  • Kyrgyzstan is rising in popularity as a unique travel destination and its easy to see why! From the beautiful nature to the well preserved culture, plus being extremely safe, it really makes it an ideal destination, but definitely expect some logistical hurdles 😁 Horseback riding in Chon Kemin and visiting Ala Archa National Park are a must! That's also where we learned about the Golden Eagles, a centuries old tradition practiced by their nomad culture that is still done today, mostly to continue keeping the traditions alive and teaching visitors about it. Do you want to visit Kyrgyzstan? ------ I'm currently hosting a custom created "luxe-adventure" through the 5 Stans of Central Asia with my group adventure community @mylifesatraveltribe! This trip is in high demand so if youd'd to join one of them, please follow there and sign up for our notifications email list linked on the bio, as we dont publicly announce or send out our itineraries. 😁

  • I was one of the last foreigners permitted in Virunga National Park in D.R. Congo before it was closed due to many armed and dangerous groups occupying it. That experience was one of the most memorable ones in my life, and part of why I’ll always say DRC is one of my favorite destinations I’ve been to (4 times). But DRC is also one of the most corrupt countries, with some of the most horrific ongoing atrocities committed on the local Congolese people, the environment, and the animals by greedy, heartless humans. Deforestation, illegal mining for minerals used to make your electronics, and destruction (plus human abuse) are a part of why the animals there suffer. Poaching for bushmeat and to steal baby primates to sell as pets is another. If you’ve ever seen a primate, especially chimpanzees, kept as a personal pet or on display, its parents were likely killed so it could be kidnapped. UAE and Gulf countries, Thailand, China, Eastern EU countries, and even people in the USA are all guilty of this. That’s why one of the organizations I’ve become an ambassador for in D.R.Congo is @lwiro_primates . Lwiro Primates take in injured, abandoned, and smuggled primates, and they rehabilitate and care for them, even during a time when their own homeland is a very scary please. So I am kindly asking today on World Giving Day for Apes, to send them a donation, or at least share their story or the info in this post. Anything helps, nothing does not. And if you ever see a chimp as a pet, please ask the owner if they’re aware that its parents were likely killed just for it to be kidnapped and forced to be a pet. 😡 The link to the fundraiser is on Lwiro’s page and I’ll share on my Stories! I’ve brought about 100 travelers to D.R.Congo, and they all can attest to what a beautiful and unique place it is. I pray and dream for the day that we can safely return there and bring tourism back.

  • The highlight reel of Skardu, Pakistan! If you'd like the behind the scenes, see my previous posts or the story highlight! But also, yes, it really is this beautiful! Do you like pretty highlight reels or do you prefer the struggle clips? Asking for a friend...who has a lot of both... 😬
  • The Photo VS the Moment in Skardu, Pakistan (wait for the videos after the photo) for anyone who thinks getting photos is easy, behold, freezing water, climbing on rocks, and magical geese who apparently want to be featured in the pics.! (Comment "Skardu" and ill DM you my full travel guide plus how to get notifications for the group trip next year!) What's the wildest thing you've done for a photo?? Thank you Destination Pakistan for the offer to work together and for helping get this footage so I didn't have to always use my tripod or selfie stick!
  • Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque! The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels! Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below! What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??
  • Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather... And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍 Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort! Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore! PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions?? More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??

KYRGYZSTAN! A destination many travelers are talking about this year, especially with the recent World Nomad Games happening here recently! This is country 1 of 5 of my custom created 5 'Stans Group Adventure itinerary for my Travel Tribe, and it has already been an incredible journey so far (albeit, extremely difficult logistically) Kyrgyzstan is a gem for those who love pristine nature and unique well preserved cultures! The Golden Eagles are a staple of ancient nomadic culture here, and today are showcased in the National Parks and other areas to keep their culture alive and educated about! These giant birds were used to hunt and as status symbols, and are like family members to the owners! Is Kyrgyzstan on your to-go list?

Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque! The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels! Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below! What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??

Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather... And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍 Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort! Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore! PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions?? More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??
