1 | Skyroam
If you have a friend or family member that does a ton of international traveling, then this is a very handy device to have. Skyroam gives you your very own personal wifi hotspot and it works the moment you set foot on international territory. So far we've taken this device with us to Costa Rica, Thailand, and Indonesia and it worked like a charm in all three destinations. Read more about Skyroam here. Use code SKYROAMTP10 at checkout and receive 10% off.
We love travel kits and especially ones that are cute and made of great quality. L'Occitane does all the hard work for you and puts together travel kits that come in adorable bags. If you want to personalize the kit and make it your own, they sell a ton of travel size products for you to pick from. Read my favorite travel picks from L'Occitane here.
Wanderer bracelets are a great way to personalize a gift and they are made-to-order. If you order the Custom Coordinates Bracelet, you can pick your favorite place on earth and have the coordinates engraved on the bracelet. That favorite place can be your birthplace, your most memorable vacation, or someplace you want to visit someday. Find out what coordinates we got engraved here. You will also be making a purchase knowing that these bracelets support jobs for village artisans in Bali, Indonesia. You can get $5 off your first order with this referral link.
4 | Away Suitcase
We have had this Away suitcase for over a year now and couldn't be happier with our purchase. It's been on quite a bit of adventures with us and it's still in great shape with little signs of wear. This awesome brand has expanded their line and have amazing limited edition collaborations which keeps us coming back for more of their products. Also, if you ever need help, their customer service is superb. Read our review here and you can also get $20 off your first order with this referral link.
No matter where we go, we always get asked about our Bandolier. This iPhone case/purse comes everywhere with us and not just on our travels. We are so used to having this iPurse that we can't go anywhere without it. The back of this case has a hidden pocket to store a few of your credit cards too. Ever since we got this case, we haven't had a single iPhone drop. Read more about why we love this case here. You can use code TP10 to get 10% off your purchase at checkout.
This one is a bit of a splurge but if you know someone who has been eyeing a new camera, this is a great starter camera. It's an ideal camera for someone who is wanting to amp up their photography skills but doesn't want to dive straight into a professional camera. A lot of the photos in our posts are taken with the Canon EOS M3 and the best part is that it's super compact. We also recommend the Sony a7S II Mirrorless Digital Camera. This camera is compact as well and takes amazing photos. You can read our reviews on both of these cameras here.
Traveling is amazing, but having your stuff stolen isn't. This backpack is one smart cookie and helps you from becoming a victim of theft. It's RFID safe, has lockable zippers, built-in slashguards, and more. Read our review and the other amazing features this backpack has here.
8 | Anatomie
Anatomie designed their clothing specifically with the traveler in mind. Their clothing is lightweight, comfortable, and super stylish. We really appreciate the attention to detail Anatomie has put into every single piece they design. When you get your package, you'll see that the tags on their clothes can be used as a luggage tag. How cool is that!? Read our review on Anatomie here and use code TTP15 to get 15% off your purchase.
We absolutely love this versatile red-eye wrap. Not only does Crystal wear it when she's traveling, but she wears it on a regular basis. It's just so comfy and useful! Read our review HERE. Get $15 off your first order HERE.
10 | 23andMe Kit
Earlier this year, we both had our DNA tested with 23andME and it revealed some surprising genes that we didn't know we had. We challenged ourselves to visit the countries where our DNA is from and this would be a fun little game for other travelers. You can read our post about our results here.
11 | BearPaw Footwear
We are all about keeping our feet comfy at home and on our travels. We love BearPaw for their cute, comfortable, and affordable styles. We also appreciate their code of ethics. They are involved in numerous charities and are committed to sustaining the environment with their "Greener Living" initiative. BearPaw is known for their boots, but earlier this year they launched a Bearly There Memory Foam Footwear collection that was filled with fun colors and styles. You can use code BPAMBCW to get 20% off any purchase at checkout.
12 | Athleta
We are huuuuge fans of Athleta clothing! Their clothes are comfortable, have an amazing fit, and their athleisure styles are on-point. Wearing comfy clothing on our travels is a must for us. One of the great things about Athleta is their return policy. They want to make sure you love what you wear, so they encourage you to test it out and if for whatever reason you don't like it, you can return it. Check out some of the Athleta outfits we wore in Costa Rica, Balboa Island, and when we are squeezing in workout sessions in our hotel room.
We are fans of Daniel Wellington watches and love their classic and affordable styles. One thing that's unique about their watches are the interchangeable straps. You can go from a black strap to a white strap and completely change the style to match your outfit. Packing small accessories to spruce up an outfit is a huge plus for us.
This holiday season Daniel Wellington is offering a special holiday bundle box (watch + cuff or a watch + additional strap) at a discounted price. There is something for everyone and as always they offer free shipping and returns plus free gift-wrapping. Add an additional 15% off savings by using our code DW15CANDY (expires 01/31/18).
