When it comes to travel expenses, the hardest decision is to make gifts. When going to travel, especially a long trip, it is expected to get gifts for friends and family, but deciding what to get is very hard.
Should it be personal? Would they like it? Why should I get it?
If you find it hard to make such a decision, this article is your guide on how to decide on the gift idea.
Make It Personal: First and foremost, before buying the gift you should ask if this gift is personal. The gift should reflect personal style and interests. If it checks the box, you should definitely get it packed.
Momento: If you can't decide on the above factor, or you are not updated with the interest of the person, as if this reflects the relationship you have with the person. Something to reflect your love, admiration, or appreciation for the person.
Something Useful: If you are not big on symbolism, then the gift can be something useful. Perfume, shoes, clothes, locally made self-care products or anything else that will remind the person of you every time they use it.
Something Reflective Of Culture: Take a piece of the culture from your trip, to share your experience with the person. Share your joy for the trip, and include them in the stories.
Handmade Something Is The Thing: Supporting the local culture is also an important part of the trip, so take a raft girl, made by local artisans. This makes great gifts, telling the receiver that they were on your mind even when you were not with them.
Something Pretty: Even after all this you can't decide what to get, the final filter is if the gift is Instagram-able. Ask yourself, if your gift is something they can celebrate with other people by sharing it with people and followers on social media. After all, all worlds are a stage.
