And believe me when I say this: I am the most reprehensibly romantic person you will ever meet. I love making fun of clichéd cliches and nonsense just as much as the next guy, but I'm also that girl over there who scrapbooks and writes heartfelt letters and bawls her eyes out every time she watches The Notebook. And so, well, whatever.
A Valentine's Day gift guide with a somewhat global flavor is included below. Outside of vacations, I think many individuals have trouble coming up with romantic travel-themed gifts for their significant others. In addition, who can afford to do it, anyway?
Tinggly: The Perfect Valentine's Day Present
With Tinggly, you can give your Valentine an unforgettable experience they'll never forget, which is ideal if you're hoping to score major points with your globetrotting sweetheart this February 14. Tinggly is a great company that sells travel experiences as gifts.
Each experience comes in a gorgeous box, making them ideal for giving as presents and sure to make a good impression on the lucky recipient. The receiver of your experience gift can pick from a wide variety of options, ranging from a relaxing dinner cruise on the Danube in Budapest to an adrenaline-pumping day of white water rafting in Nepal, all of which are included in every experience box.
Even gift certificates to the recipient's ideal vacation spot can be purchased as "getaway boxes."
Annoyingly Personal and Thoughtful Valentine's Gifts
The following suggestions for Valentine's Day will cause you to sigh deeply (before you slyly click through on those links because you low-key want everything). I'm warning you now that you shouldn't bring one of these to a first Tinder date since they're incredibly considerate and sweet, but they would be perfect for someone you've been dating for a long.
Creating A Custom World Map
Our love has brought us all around the world, and this map proves it. I realize that this present probably makes you think of that couple you know from Facebook that needs to take it easy, but guys, it's SO adaptable! The names, the places; it would be wrong not to get one. Before I click the "purchase" button, please stop me. In all seriousness, you can get it for under twenty dollars. He loses it and acts irrationally.
Tags For Anniversary Travel
Are these individualized suitcase labels going to make people roll their eyes? In all likelihood, but you have to admit they're adorable! Plus, it will likely stop pickpockets from making off with your bags.
Similar Passport Covers
Protect it like it's your firstborn child because your passport is almost as precious as your love. Regarding matching sets, these two are classy and appropriately extra (if such a thing exists). You can even have your names put on them, which is the final straw for me shelling out cash for one.
Wrapped in Your Coordinates
In case you ever get questioned about where you shared your first passionate kiss. (I mean, come on, we've all been there. No? Nobody? (Okay, it makes sense.) Anyway, these individualized coordinate bracelets enable you to keep track of your relationship's most crucial data with the pinpoint accuracy of a serial killer: on your wrist—the epitome of a heartfelt Valentine's Day present.
Book of Adventures
Since Up is one of my all-time favorite films, I can't think of a better Valentine's Day present than this. Pile on the anecdotes, images, and cornball quips for maximum heartstring-pulling effect. Indeed, tears WILL FLOW. Please tell me you're skilled at holding people uncomfortably as they weep.
The Adventure Fund/Piggy Bank You Design Yourself
Get one of these customized hipster "piggy banks" for the two of you if you and your partner are avid explorers. Better yet, if it's already loaded with cash, but hey, yen, don't ask me to manage your romantic life.
Unmatching Passport Covers
I should clarify that I meant "slightly" more practical. But I can't be the only one who thinks passport covers are fantastic presents, fitting? They are the ideal Valentine's Day gift because they are both practical and show how much you care.
These below, I feel, are the ideal romantic compromise between those above "monogrammed TOGETHER FOREVER + anniversary dates" passport covers and, say, a can of Pringles (which, to be honest, I would not mind receiving as a Valentine's Day present).
