Looking for gift ideas suited to travellers can be daunting. There is so much to choose from. And what does the other person like or not already have? Or maybe you are looking at spoiling yourself.
You might wanna give a present to a traveller that is light, handy for travel, inspirational or just something that is good for every day use at home and on the road.
We live minimalistic and are always on the road, but even then you need things. We know that when living on the road or travelling the world, storage is limited and the need of good products is high.
This is why we have created a list with gift ideas that we personally love to use from businesses that we like.
The businesses below are either Australian, Small local business and / or Promising start ups.
Facial & Beauty Products
Everyone needs some sort of skin & beauty product right?
We are big believers of organic and natural skincare and pure coconut oil is our all in one product for on the road and daily life, but sometimes you want to treat yourself or others with a little extra. Here are a few brands we personally love because they are either organic, natural, waste free and or local Australian Beauty brands.
All in one from Florette Skincare
My favourite is the all in one beauty treatment that only consist of 3 bottles. Perfect for travellers with limited space.
They say: ‘Less is more’ when it comes to skincare for sensitive skin. At Florette Skincare they like to keep their products as pure and simple as possible. They only use fresh, high quality, natural and organic ingredients to soothe and restore balance to your sensitive skin.
What I also love about Florette is that they also ‘give back’ to people in need.

Body Products from Ananda Life
We love the body products from Ananda Life. They are natural body products with a conscious and absolutely cruelty free.
We use the bath salts for when we are house sitting and we actually have a bath and their Geranium body butter is define!
The good thing about the bath salts is that they contain a good amount of magnesium. Did you know that 80% of people is magnesium deficient? Nope we didn’t know either.
So you are not only taking a bath with delicious smells, but you’re also bathing in magnesium, which helps to maintain your nerve and muscle function, supports a healthy immune system, your heartbeat steady and your bones strong.
Support this amazing small business based in Mullumbimby, Byron Hinterland and treat yourself to some delicious body products HERE
Non Toxic Hair Rinse by ACV
The Hair Rinse is super handy for travellers as they are perfect for moments you don’t have a shower nearby or you hair is in need of a quick rinse.
At ACV Body, only apples were harmed in the making of their products.
Established in 2017 by Teagan Barr, ACV produces natural, ethical, hair and skincare products made with Organic Apple Cider Vinegar.
Teagan was on a mission to find natural health and beauty alternatives and she noticed Apple Cider Vinegar kept popping up. The uses and benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar seemed to be endless. She started experimenting with ACV as a hair and scalp treatment and was amazed by the results. There was just one problem…the pungent stank of vinegar. So she got creative and the result was a nourishing plant-based hair rinse with all the benefits of organic apple cider vinegar (minus the harsh stank of course).
ACV believe in simplicity and transparency only working with ethically sourced ingredients that you can pronounce and recognise.
ACV is also committed to donating $1 from every sale to The Ocean Cleanup, an organisation who develop advanced technologies to help rid the world’s oceans of plastic.
Something that we as travellers are also very passionate about.

Jewellery for Travellers
Basic Jewellery ( nothing too fancy for travellers tho 😉 ) is always good to mix and match. Here are two brands we personally really like.
A bracelet from Sashka Co
Available in all colours of the rainbow, Sashka Co. Bracelets will roll over any size hand. They won’t break and have a lifetime guarantee.
What I really like about these bracelets is that they are hand crocheted bead by bead by very skilled artisans in the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal.
Also, When you purchase a Sashka Co bracelet, you empower woman to rise above poverty through fair trade.
There are bracelets in plain colours, mixed colours, bracelets for a good cause and some have words encrypted in them, like mine below saying: Hope and Thankful.

Masculine bracelet from Fathom
These are more for male travellers and are telling a story inspired by sailing and the sea.
Sailing forges a connection, elegance in its simplicity, with a rolling past forever each moment.
Even the name ‘Fathom’ means ‘6 feet’, a sailing attribute. And the names of their bracelets are related to the world’s busiest sailing ports.

For the Coffee Lovers
Roasted on is one of our favourite Coffee brands fresh from the Adelaide Hills. Unfortunately at this stage we don’t have a coffee bean machine in our van ( takes up to much space ) but once we have another long house sit or move back into a home, Roasted on is our go to coffee roaster!
Most store brands are produced in faraway lands and are weeks or months old by the time you take them home. During those weeks of travel and storage, other coffees lose their flavour and become the mediocre cup that fails to inspire.
This family-owned and operated business expertly roast specialty beans to give you the most refreshingly flavourful coffee possible. The coffee beans are ethically sourced, and detailed notes on your coffee’s origin are included in each delivery.

Here are some clothing ideas from Femme Luxe that can be worn during the day, but also at night. These are all ( mini ) dresses than can be worn during the night with a cool legging or panty ( depending on your length ) and heels, but also during the day with sneakers and a jeans.
