Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. Shops are filled to the brim with teddy bears, red roses, and chocolate-shaped hearts. However, the cliche cuteness overload isn’t for all of us, and sometimes a fluffy Steiff bear (however adorable it may be) might not suffice for your partner (especially if they have a more adventurous soul and a thirst for travel).

If your other half suffers from permanently itchy feet syndrome, why not treat them to a gift geared toward their upcoming expeditions? This year, we’ve got all bases covered in this curated travel lovers’ gift guide. We’re talking pre-trip prep goodies and luxury items to ensure that their traveling experience is as smooth as a lover's serenade.

After all, the best gifts are always the most researched and thoughtful. And as you know, at TQE, we take gifting very seriously, so we’ve done all the hard work for you.

Keeping a travel journal is a great way to stimulate self-reflection and memory for the eventual return back home and ideal for keeping organized on the go. Can we also take a moment to admire how stunning the customizable foiled artwork on the hardback cover is? Plus, journey planning will be a breeze with space for budget, itineraries, and packing lists inside.

What is the worst possible scenario before any long-haul flight? Losing a passport is the most obvious catastrophe. We’re partially drawn to this black and navy cover by Clare V. With such a vivid design, this passport sleeve is less likely to get misplaced. It’s lined in glossy green perruche kid leather, fits up two passports and can be monogrammed. Perfectly giftable.

Okay, we lied when we told you we would steer clear of cliche. What is jewelry if not a cliche Valentine’s gift? All being said, we’d accept this white sapphire and moonstone sterling compass charm necklace in a heartbeat, and we’re sure that any self-proclaimed travel lover will too. The brand’s sustainable practices also make this a great gift if your other half is living a more environmentally aware lifestyle.

Sleep Mask Pro

There are five love languages, but in my personal opinion, there should be a sixth: sleep. Blissful slumber is hard to come by at the best of times, but whilst traveling, it’s an even harder feat. This is where a top rated sleep mask will reign supreme. Manta claims that its sleep masks are “the most advanced on the planet” and we can see why. With a non bulky blackout seal and unmatched breathability with a 360 airflow, these look like a great bedside addition as well as a travel must-have.

A personal revelation of mine – your vacation is as good as the comfort of your feet.Treat your partner to some podiatrist-approved sneakers that also happen to be aesthetically desirable (who knew that was possible!). Hoka’s highly cushioned, lightweight sneakers might just be the secret to non-stop energy. The unisex style, Project Clifton, is available in four colorways and an aqua guard zip feature that enlists a quick lace system, making them great for rushing around on the go.

Who said travel friendly skincare has to be basic? Treat them to Stella McCartney’s extremely covetable but equally conscious travel set. You’ll find miniature sizes of the brand’s cleanser, serum and moisturizer gifted in a branded recycled nylon tote. All products are vegan and cruelty free and also recyclable and refillable. It’s compact eco luxe at its finest. For the partner who doesn't do “roughing it” whilst traveling (and why should they?).
