Wanderlust (

/ˈwändərˌləst/) the strong desire to travel.

People who enjoy travel are often looked upon as lost souls, but that's simply not true in most of the cases. Some of us are just born with the desire to explore!

If you know someone who loves to travel but never know what to buy them as a gift, Jen Downey offers the perfect solution: meaningful travel inspired jewelry.

 Patron Saint Of Travel

Did you know that Saint Christopher is known as the Patron Saint of Travel? Jen Downey's sterling silver St. Christopher medallion necklace is the perfect keepsake for someone who travels often, is off to start a new journey, or even someone who drives frequently to help protect them as they go about their journey.

There are two card backings to choose from for my Saint Christopher sterling silver jewelry. Each necklace is made with sterling silver materials and includes a care card on how to maintain the quality of your sterling silver jewelry.

Say Yes to New Adventures! 

I personally love this quote because it reminds me to take advantage of the experiences while you can. I'm a believer that fear is the root of so many of our problems. If you're so focused on what could go wrong then you're missing out on all the adventures life has to offer. Say yes, and figure it out later. What's the point of being here if you aren't going to take advantage of living?

Whether you're looking for the perfect inspirational gift idea for your daughter as she goes off to college or you want to send your best friend a meaningful gift idea to remind her to stop living in fear and start enjoying the opportunities placed in front of her, this gorgeous sterling silver hot air balloon necklace is the perfect keepsake to give!

 Travel Buddy Gift Idea

I'm writing this in early 2021, nearly a year after the entire world shut down from a global pandemic. I never thought that I'd be living through a chapter in history when not just my own country was impacted by something large enough to shut us down, but the entire world.

Travel didn't become non-existent throughout 2020, but flying definitely became a rare occurrence. Road trips became more common and exploring your own backyard was the new trip to Paris.

As I'm writing this the world is slowly starting to transition into a more normal state - or rather, our new normal - including travel. That's why it was so important for me to highlight my Wanderlust Collection.

For some of us, your idea of a travel buddy might be packing up your car with your best and road tripping across country to see the Grand Canyon. For others, your travel buddy might be the person you call when you've got an itch to hop on a plane to see the Pyramids, and for some your travel buddy might be the person you call when you have to drive 20 minutes out of town and just want someone to go with you.

Travel buddies look different for everyone, but no matter where your adventure takes you it's nice to know that you have that special friend in your life who is willing to go on those adventures with you.
