The holiday season is a time for memorable get-togethers with family and friends, fantastic festive feasts, shopping until you drop, and if you are like many people- traveling. I can remember Christmases past, when I would pack up my kids and pets and head out on the road, often traveling more than 1500 miles in order to make it home for Christmas morning. If you travel frequently, you probably know how important it can be to have the appropriate travel gear. Years ago, when I first began making long trips to visit friends and family members, money was pretty tight, and I didn’t want to “waste” it on traveling essentials. I would literally pack all of our belongings into extra backpacks and plastic bags that I had collected from the grocery store! Not only did our clothes end up becoming a wrinkled mess, but cosmetics got ruined, jewelry got lost, and often times things got broken.
Before long, I became known as “the bag lady” to my friends and family members. After a few unorganized plastic bag trips, my friends and family members decided to step in. I started to receive wonderful travel Christmas gifts. Although it began as a joke amongst my loved ones, those travel Christmas gifts quickly became a highlight of the season. I received some of the most useful, treasured gifts that I could imagine in the coming years.
These days, my husband and children actually tease me about the abundance of travel gadgets, organizers and specialty items that I have, but one thing is for sure- we have everything we need for out family trips, and we always return from our adventures with all of our belongings still intact.
