It looks quite uncomfortable, but no more! With the Angel Baby car seat, you receive a universal bag that fits most Car Seats, Booster Seats, Infant Carriers, and more! It also has convenient carrying handle and drawstring adjustable lock for easy open/close with an ID TAG for identification.

Travel Insurance from World Nomads
Travel insurance isn’t always high on the Bucket List Adventurer’s list of gifts, but it is probably one of the most important.

What I like is that they cover all kinds of things: illness, theft, flight cancellations, and of course accidents – even from adventure sports.
