Under $30: 2013 Cities Calendar<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

Jetting off to another corner of the globe each month doesn\u2019t have to remain a dream any longer. Well, on paper, that is. Rifle Paper Co.<\/a> presents this high-quality calendar with a hand-painted city map for each month. Our Sydney program<\/a> makes us partial to September, which features the city.<\/p>\n

Under $70: Donner shoulder bag<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

A compartmentalized bag is one item no well-seasoned traveler can go without. Thanks to Overland Equipment<\/a>\u2019s classic travel bag, everything from sunglasses to an umbrella fits perfectly in place. Our alumni already noted the Donner as a favorite<\/a>, and we\u2019ve come to agree the same after testing out the bag ourselves. The only hard decision in purchasing this bag will be deciding which color your globetrotting sister will like most.<\/p>\n

Under $100: SingleNest Hammock<\/a> with Atlas straps<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve noticed countless students at our partner institutions of East Carolina University<\/a> and University of Florida <\/a>luxuriating in these hammocks hung in campus quads. Made by Eagles Nest Outfitters<\/a>, the SingleNest is both heavy duty, boasting a 400 pound capacity, and lightweight at just 17 ounces. Securely hung with the tree friendly Atlas straps, we can imagine how ideal this hammock would be on our Fiji program<\/a> to tie between two palm trees.<\/p>\n
