50 Gifts for Globe Trotters

From Airplane-Safe Knives to Traveling Tush Cleansers

— December 17, 2009 — Tech
We all know someone who is a perpetual traveler. Someone who is never in the same place for very long, who lives out of a suitcase, and who sends you a postcard a week from places you’ve never even heard of. Even if your world-traveling loved-one isn’t around for the holidays, you still want to get them something they’ll cherish—if only because it would make their globe-trotting way of life easier. This cluster of gifts for globe-trotters includes everything from inflatable sofas to luggage with built-in scales.
