Travel Treats: Small Extras That Make Travel Nicer
Travel treats are the things you don’t strictly need — but once you bring them, you’re glad you did. They’re not about efficiency or fixing problems. They’re about comfort, ritual, and feeling a bit more like yourself while you’re away.
This collection sits just outside of travel essentials. Everything here is small, packable, and easy to justify, especially if you care about how travel feels, not just how it functions. These items also make thoughtful gifts for frequent travelers, honeymooners, or anyone who appreciates well-designed details.
What Counts as a Travel Treat
A travel treat is something you could leave behind if you had to — but wouldn’t want to. Think soft, personal, or slightly indulgent items that add ease without being necessary. Many aren’t “travel products” in a strict sense, but they earn their place in your bag because they make being away more pleasant.
This is where form, texture, and small rituals matter more than features.
Giftable Extras for Thoughtful Travelers
Because these items aren’t essential, they work especially well as gifts. They don’t require knowing someone’s packing system, travel style, or destination in detail. Most fit easily into a carry-on or personal item, and they feel personal without being too specific.
If you’re building a kit for yourself, this is also the part that’s fun — choosing things you enjoy using, not just things that do a job.
This page is intentionally curated and kept small. Items may rotate over time, but the focus stays the same: non-essential travel extras that feel considered, giftable, and genuinely nice to have.
