And if you're looking for a gift for this person, you don't want to disappoint.

A Wine Growler And Tumbler Gift Set
  
A WINE GROWLER AND TUMBLER GIFT SET

For someone that travels and enjoys food and wine, this gift is a must. This SEVEN/FIFTY Wine Growler and Tumbler features double-wall, vacuum-insulated walls to keep your wine at an optimal temperature. Even better, Barnes notes that the stainless-steel lining is non-leaching and won't retain taste or odor, so you can always savor a perfect pour. The FIFTY/FIFTY branded set is available in burgundy, pearl white, rose gold, and marble.

Comfort is paramount for travelers, and the Rejuve Rayon Bamboo Weighted Blanket Throw creates a comfortable, relaxing environment. The silky material is hypoallergenic, and the evenly distributed weight will put you right to sleep. According to Barnes, the material is similar to that of the Rejuve sheets. The throw is available in gray and teal.
  
The Ultimate Travel Pillow
  

THE ULTIMATE TRAVEL PILLOW
From Bucky's, the Travel Duo Bed Pillow will ensure that every traveler wakes up rested after a long drive or flight.

Barnes notes that the buckwheat portion of the filling allows for natural ventilation, keeping things naturally cool and dry.
  
A Multi Device Charger To Power Your Day

From SKROSS, check out this power bank that can handle multiple devices, keeping you charged so you can power through the day. According to Barnes, this Swiss brand is one of the leading manufacturers of high-end travel accessories and adapters. They are also known for their progressive business practices that promote the environment, workers' rights, and ethical business behavior. This specific model, the Reload 20, can charge a smartphone more than six times and offers two USB ports.

A High Definition Dashboard Camera
 

A HIGH-DEFINITION DASHBOARD CAMERA
Scoshe, a well-known auto accessories brand, puts safety and security first with this high-definition dashboard camera. The camera features a 2.4" TFT Screen and 1080p HD or 720 HD resolution. According to Barnes, the 100-degree wide-angle lens allows for seamless loop recording to a MicroSD card and features a hands-free auto on/off.

A Comfortable Hooded Travel Pillow
  

A COMFORTABLE HOODED TRAVEL PILLOW
For those flights or back seats where you just can’t get comfortable, this hooded travel pillow will help you relax and catch some shut-eye. Plus, you may recognize the brand from Shark Tank. From Biaaggi, the Napsak EZ-Boost Hooded Travel Pillow inflates and deflates with the touch of a button, allowing you to find your perfect comfort level. To get rid of distracting light preventing you from sleeping, simply pull the attached hood over your eyes. Barnes recommends this product because it collapses down to a small size and can be carried around in a small pouch. Plus, it's machine washable.
