4 Gifts to Travel Light
Why travel light? Because light is always better, in every way. The benefits are many. Travelling light can save you time, energy and money, all of which translate into a more enjoyable travel experience.
One way to make sure you really are as light as you want to be is to use a luggage scale. Not only is it important for ease of lugging your carriage up and down stairs and onto trains, it can also save you money on flights by not going over the weight limit.
The best luggage scale is the Dunheger Digital Luggage Scale. Accurate and extremely precise, it weighs in both pounds and kilos with capacity up to 110lb / 50kg. Easy to use and easy to use, it weighs less than 5 ounces itself.
Sometimes you don’t want to travel with a camera but you do always want to take pictures. A new accessory for smartphones is a clip-on lens with zoom, fish-eye and panorama options, expanding the photo-capability of your phone. You can have the advantage of a bigger camera without the size, weight and inconvenience. Because let’s face it – we do travel with our smartphone but we don’t always want to haul out a heavy, awkward camera to take a photo.
The big question – do I take my water bottle or not? With the Vapur Flexible Water Bottle, this is no longer a question. Weight 2.1 ounces, it can be folded, rolled or flattened, so it adds little weight and takes up little space when not being used. It can be safely placed in a freezer, and comes with an integrated carabiner making it easy to use.
But when it comes to liquids, you don’t want to carry any extra on your body either. Wearing compression socks will help to prevent foot and leg swelling, particularly during a long flight. Some claim that it also makes sleeping on the plane easier, too. Try to Mojo Compression Socks.
