Traveling is awesome. But navigating crowded airports and sitting on stinky buses can suck. Fortunately, there's聽lots of thoughtful but聽inexpensive gear that can make your journey a little more bearable. Here are few pieces, all under $50.
BUBM Travel Organizer ($16) 聽
Keep聽your chargers, ear buds, and external hard drive tangle free and at the ready with that folds flat to fit inside your backpack.聽
Gerber Dime Travel Multitool ($25)聽
gives you 12 tools in a butterfly-style, stainless steel package that鈥檚 small enough to fit on your key chain. We particularly like the zipper hook, which helps open broken zippers on luggage. And it鈥檚 bladeless, so you can take it on the plane.聽
Kindle Paperwhite E-Reader ($130)
This E-reader聽has enough space to store your聽entire summer reading list, without the bulk. We also like that the聽聽has twice as many pixels compared to some other readers in its category which allows for a clearer, more traditional reading experience. The USB-rechargeable聽battery lasts for weeks.聽
Joby GripTight One Tripod ($35) 聽聽
A venerated camera accessory, this of Joby's GorillaPod is designed to work with your smartphone so you can snap Instagram-worthy shots in low light. 聽
The Carry-On Cocktail Kit ($20)聽
Each聽of these聽聽packs everything you need (except the booze)聽to make two cocktails on the go. There are kits for聽anything from a Bloody Mary to an Old Fashioned.聽
