a glass of water

16 people recommended this item

Description

Don't sit at your desk and munch cookies. Sit at your desk and sip water. It will be just as satisfying, and you'll think better, longer.

Do filter your water. It'll taste better, and who knows what microbes and black things you'll be taking out of it.

And do keep it handy, in a big pitcher by your desk. OR, get yourself a BIG jug, like a 1.2 litre wine bottle, and swig out of that. You'll look like such a Bohemian poet. Just make sure it's water you're drinking, if you seriously want to finish that novel.

The Elements of Style

5 people recommended this item

Description

For those wishing to give their emails or journals an extra bit ‘of on the road oomph’, this handy writing guide is a must. It’s pocket sized and packs a real punch. In the words of The Boston Globe: “No book in shorter space, with fewer words, will help any travel writer more than this persistent little volume.

Nutella

Description

I've eaten Nutella or its equivalent in Israel, France and the USA. It brings back fond memories of times spent with friends. There's nothing like on a good piece of bread for breakfast.

Unrefined coconut oil

Description

Organic, unrefined coconut oil in cooking as well as one's personal toilette is quite delightful. I use this almost daily to condition and protect skin. I even use it for cooking on the rare occasion that I actually cook! ;)

Maldon Sea Salt

8 people recommended this item

Description

Use kosher salt for cooking, but sea salt for seasoning raw or finished foods. It tastes faintly briney, of the sea.

Teva Redpoint

3 people recommended this item

Description

Whilst on the road there will be many different situations that the backpacker will find themselves in, and there will be equally as many activities that they will be involved in. Whether you will be kayaking,hiking, exploring new towns and villages, or simply enduring extended periods on transport, the backpacker needs comfortable footwear that they can rely on. The beauty of shoes like these is that they are also multi-role, meaning less different types of footwear will be needed. This all helps keeping backpack size and weight to a minimum. Multi-functional shoes such as these are, in my opinion, a must for any potential globetrekker.

Power Whistle w/ LED Light, Compass and Thermometer

3 people recommended this item

Description

We all need a torch (for those power outages and even during stays in hostel dorms, for instance), and we all will find a compass useful at some point during our travels (for hiking or even successfully getting our bearings in a new city) – and to have them together in one, small item is a real boon. If this wasn’t enough, for it to also combine a whistle is a superb idea. Although most suited to outdoor adventure, this inexpensive, lightweight 3 in 1 gadget is a great little package. Highly recommended.
