A co-worker is leaving on Monday, well it’s here last day anyway, to go and backpack across Europe.

I want to get her something, but I am not sure what. I was going to try and keep the price down under 50 bucks. Do you guys have any idea what I could get her? She doesnt need music or a camera and I know she really can’t carry TOO much.

So… any ideas?

If I remember right you’re engaged or possibly married, so I doubt you’re trying to seduce this woman. I’d get like 1,000 Power Bars or something.

You could get her one of those really nifty Travel towels that pack down really small and dry you better than a real towel and also they dry themselves. From soaking wet to bone dry in about 10 minutes. I use one for my job and they are great. Within your bubget too.

I think ive got a good one, since I just bought a new one…How about getting her a blank book, like a journal, so she can write down here experiences on her trip?

The small towels cost around 25 Great British Pounds (thats for a large, which you will want) so in dollars im guessing about 35. Get them from any outdoor clothing store. Or even [www.gromp.co.uk](http://www.gromp.co.uk) very shortly, but not shortly enough i persume.
