Living in Middle East comes with a great perk: you can visit many travel destinations that normally, if you travel from Europe, it would take a certain amount of hours to reach. When we lived in Doha we visited Oman, Malaysia, Singapore and Australia. Saving at least 6 hours of travel (the number of flight hours you need to go from Italy to Doha) made “easier” for us to go to Australia, which is normally the trip of life!

Now that we live in Dubai we are still keeping an eye toward Far East and we might be also planning a trip to somewhere in Asia very soon. If this happens, I definitely keep you posted.

However, even when you have just few days to spend away, there are a lot, but I mean really A LOT of destinations that you can reach in few hours. Maldives, Srilanka, Seychelles to name few.

If you are travel lover, or if you have a friend who loves to jump on a plane anytime she/he can, this post might give you an idea about a precious gift to put under the Christmas tree this year.

I recently put my hands on this incredible travel bag, designed and produced by Athison. Athison is an italian company leader in the production of braided items and it happens to be located in Domodossola which is next to my hometown, Verbania.

This travel size bag is part of the new collection that Athison launched in these days. The collection includes also crossbody bags (omg, I totally LOVE this one), handbags, briefcases and small leather goods. Each item has the signature braided leather.

The Athison travel bag is absolutely perfect for a weekend getaway or for a staycation in town. It’s big enough to contain two outfit changes, an extra pair of shoes, a small beauty purse and everything you need to stay 2/3 days away from home.

Futher, despite the good intention that I have to travel with a small and light handbag, I always end to carry on with me half of my closet, lol. Truth is that I really suffer the A/C on the plane so I always need a sweater, a jacket and a scarf with me (no kidding!). The Athison travel bag is exactly the size of bag I need to keep everything with me, without losing style.

If I were you, I would start to launch some signs about an hypothetical wishlist to the right person (husbands are worried!). Or, if you don’t want to wait that someone understands the sign, you can buy the Athison collection online here. Best surprise, there is a 30% off with the code “christmas30%”, valid until the end of month! With the wide range of products available on the e-shop you can really find beautiful gifts for you and for your loved ones. I have this tubular belt, and my husband has put his eyes on this one.
