Travel Without the Tangle With These Tech Accessory Travel Organizers

There’s the old way of storing your cords and tech accessories (which pretty much consists of chucking a bunch of stuff into a bag and praying it doesn’t result in a Gordian knot of cords) and then there’s the new way. And that new way involves being better prepared. Which means you need a tech accessory travel organizer. Featuring gear picks both large and small, expensive and affordable, we prove there’s a much better way to get organized as you hit the road or tackle your morning commute.

The best travel organizers get the job done in style, so you can do yours. See all our favorites below.

Presidents Day is a great time to go on a vacation, but since the whole world is still grounded due to COVID-19, travel plans have had to be temporarily shelved. Unfortunately, flights and hotel bookings have had to be canceled or postponed, and trips that you’ve excitedly planned for months are now in limbo. The good news is, if we all do our part and hunker down, we will be able to travel again soon, but in the meantime, you can enjoy the upcoming holiday by re-creating the experiences and sensations of travel right in your own home.

Way before any of us were hopping on planes for vacations, we were already armchair traveling with the help of stories, pictures, and our imagination, and now with the internet and social media on our side, it’s easier than ever for your mind to travel while your body stays at home. From reading travel books to preparing a meal from your favorite country, we've listed here the best ways to travel from the comfort of your own home for a Presidents Day staycation.
Read Travel Books
Travelogues and travel memoirs are the OG way to travel, and one of the best ways to let your mind wander the world right now without leaving the house. There are literally thousands of travel books to choose from, written about every kind of country or experience you could want. Missing the great outdoors? Try a book about hiking or spending time in the wilderness like Cheryl Strayed’s Wild or Bill Bryson’s A Walk in the Woods. Want to escape to the literal end of the world? Head down to Patagonia with Paul Theroux’s The Old Patagonian Express or Bruce Chatwin’s In Patagonia, and then hop the Drake Passage to the only place on Earth COVID-19 hasn’t reached, Antarctica, with Sara Wheeler’s Terra Incognita. Need something humorous? Try Bill Bryson’s Notes From A Small Island or Turn Right At Machu Picchu by Mark Adams. Cooking and baking a lot more than usual? Escape to Provence with Peter Mayle to luxuriate in French cuisine with A Year in Provence. There’s a travel book for every kind of mood and place, so snuggle up in your favorite chair and let your mind take off. (You can find more adventure travel books here.)

Crash Baggage Pre-Damaged Luggage Wants Travelers to Handle Without Care

On the all-too-frequent occasion that our luggage is damaged in transit, most of us are quick to curse the airlines. But, there’s something to be said for embracing all those dents, dings, and scratches. Like old scars and war wounds, they’re usually signs of a life and a travel resume rich with experience. Of course, if you haven’t yet ventured as far as you’d like, your luggage might look a bit too fresh. Enter: Crash Baggage.

Every bag is molded from lightweight polycarbonate that’s purposely designed to look dented, crushed, and thoroughly well-worn. It seems like a strange concept. But, considering many of us are happy to pay a premium for pre-worn items like ripped jeans, tattered baseball caps, and vintage books, maybe it’s not that strange.
