Let’s face it – lugging around heavy books while traveling is a total drag. Enter the Kindle – load up all your books and read them on a lightweight device!

The Sony a6400 is the perfect travel camera and one of the best travel gifts for her if she loves photography! I spent 10 years lugging around a heavy dSLR on my travels – it came to the point where I would leave the camera at home in favor of shooting on my iPhone because it was so annoying to carry around.
Last year, when the dSLR finally died a very quick and painful death, I finally caved and switched over to a mirrorless camera and I am kicking myself for not doing it sooner!
