These 10 Travel Gadgets Will Revolutionize Your Vacation
Traveling and vacationing can be one of life’s greatest pleasures. It is a time to relax, a time to explore new cultures and new exotic places. A great vacation takes you away from all the stresses and concerns of your life.
But, at the same time, travel can be a massively stressful activity.
Even packing can be difficult. I remember the last time I went on vacation, in the hotel I realized I had forgotten to pack many important items, items that would have saved me a lot of trouble. Another time I packed too much and had to carry needlessly heavy bags everywhere. Who hasn’t experienced similar situations?
Luckily these issues might become things of the past thanks to these ten great products. With these items you’ll be able to travel smarter, with less stress.
1. The Ohderii Portable Footrest
Spending hours in an airplane is a necessity of modern travel. Some of us like it, some of us hate it. Whatever our opinion, after a long flight we all get that uncomfortable cramped feeling in our legs. Now thanks to this footrest, you’ll never need to feel like this again and instead, you’ll be able to relax and unwind on the plane without discomfort.
The footrest is extremely lightweight and easy to pack, and although it is designed for in-flight use, it can be used in many different settings, such as at home, or at work.
The footrest is essentially a small hammock for your feet, as such it is extremely easy to set up, giving you more time to relax.

2. The Trtl Pillow: Much Lighter than traditional U shaped travel pillows
One of the most popular travel products are travel pillows. More and more of us buy these small, lightweight pillows to make our traveling more comfortable. However, what’s annoying about most of them is that, due to their size and shape, packing them can be a pain.
This is made much easier thanks to the Trtl pillow, its clever design makes it much lighter and easier to pack than traditional U shaped travel pillows. Not only is it lighter, it’s actually better for you. The Trtl’s design and internal support structure means your head will be comfortably held in a much more natural position than other travel pillows.
This, combined with the above footrest will make your uncomfortable airplane or train seat almost like a bed.

3. Q-Shirts by Utzu: Four Different Designs in One Shirt
If you’re fashion conscious, choosing the right shirts to pack can be a challenge in itself. Unless you buy more shirts on vacation, the handful you pack will have to last you for the whole vacation.
Normally, if you want 4 different shirt designs, you will have to pack 4 shirts. Not so much with the Q-shirt, thanks to their revolutionary design. Each Q-shirt has 4 different designs. Allowing you to pack a potentially huge variety of shirt designs. With it you can diversify your look 4 times in one day.
These shirts aren’t just revolutionary in appearance either, the fabric used has anti-bacterial properties which help to lessen smells and eliminate odor from sweat. Also, the fabric is designed to allow your skin to breath easier, so you will feel fresher for longer. You will be able to wear it more than other shirts without worrying about hygiene or appearance.

4. Steamfast Home-and-Away Mini Steam Iron
Have you ever noticed, that no matter how carefully you pack your clothes, they always seem to come out creased? You have visions of yourself looking great while on vacation, and when you’re finally there you find yourself searching the hostel or hotel for an Iron to use. With this travel size steam iron, you never need to worry about creased clothes when traveling again.

5. Tic. Smart Bottles: One Small Bottle to Fill with Your Shower Gel, or Soap, or Creams
Almost every time I pack, my backpack or suitcase always seems to end up being full of plastic bottles. Whether they are bottles of shower gel, skin creams, soap, or hand lotion. I end up taking so many bottles that I risk running out of space.
The tic smart bottle solves this bottle by condensing the problem. Each smart bottle is composed of a number of different sections for you to fill with your shower gel, or soap, or creams. So instead of packing many bottles, you only need to pack one.
Now you’re probably thinking these bottles must be massive right? Far from it actually, each travel bottle is about the size of a smartphone and can be easily carried in the palm of your hand. Just one of these can radically change the number of items you need to pack.

6. Bluesmart One, a Suitcase That Connects to Your Phone
This suitcase is pretty incredible and redefines what a suitcase can be. When you travel there is always a risk of your phone running out of power. If this happens, it can be far more disastrous than if your phone ran out of power outside of your vacation. The Bluesmart One is a suitcase that has outlets allowing you to charge your phone on the move.
What’s more, you’ll never lose this suitcase as it has a built in SIM card, enabling it to appear on GPS through its app. Also through its app, you can remotely check the bag’s weight and lock or unlock it, giving your items a great level of protection.
Though it is pricier than most suitcases you might find, the sheer number of extra features it has makes it well worth the extra cost.

7. Scrubba Portable Laundry Wash System
I’ve often found that its difficult to rely on all hotels or hostels to have decent laundry systems. In more than one occasion I’ve had to wash my clothes in the shower with me as there seemed to be no other way (I don’t recommend it!).
The Scrubba wash system allows your clothes to get a machine-quality wash no matter where you are. It is extremely light weight and can be easily packed (in a way its the smallest and lightest washing machine in the world). It’s made from an extremely durable bag lined with hundreds of small ridges which scrub your clothes as you squeeze and press it. As such it is far more effective than hand washing, and keeps you dry.

8. Spectacles by Snap Inc.
Warning: These will make you feel like James Bond.
Vacations are full of moments you want to preserve. These days, this is pretty easy, almost all phones have built in video recorders. However filming with your phone can often drain the battery, or use up much needed memory, or you might want to keep your hands free while filming.
These glasses have video cameras built into them, allowing you to film whatever you’re seeing with the push of a button. With these you can shoot up to 30 seconds at a time in full HD.
You upload your videos directly to Snapchat if you want or even upload them to your phone’s camera roll.
So they’re a great gadget to buy if you want to keep a video record of your vacation.

9. Lunatec Self Cleaning Wash Cloth
If you expect to be on the move for most of your vacation. You can’t really afford to wait around for things to dry. The Lunatec wash cloth can dry completely within minutes. You can dry yourself off with it, and before you know it, it will be bone dry itself. Also, unlike traditional towels or microfiber towels, it never needs to be cleaned. You can cover it in dirt, and after a quick rinse all the dirt just washes away. As such, it’s perfect for any RV Vacation or hiking trip.

10. CGear Sand-free Mat
We all love relaxing on the beach, to feel the sun on our face and listen to the waves softly lapping the shoreline. It’s pretty much the classic vacation activity. But what always is a let down is spending ten minutes shaking out the sand from your beach towel or mat (and even then grains of sand show up weeks later). This can be worse if the sand on it spreads to you.
The CGear Sand-Free mat gets rid of this issue entirely. Sand just doesn’t stick to it at all, nor does dirt or dust. Also, like the above wash cloth, it is amazingly fast drying. Making it the perfect thing to relax on and enjoy a picnic on the beach.
