Maybe even more than I like shopping for myself, I love finding the perfect gift for other people. When it’s time to shop for my travel friends, I try to think not only about cool gadgets or quirky gizmos, but also how the gift can help that person perfect their passion or give back to local artists or a local community. This gift guide includes both types of gifts: with everything from personalized luxury items to animal rescues. What would you like to get this season?
