Luckies Scratch Off Travel Map

The satisfying bit of the Luckies Scratch Off Travel Map is the copper foil: scratch away the places you’ve visited and bright colors appear against the matte black background. It’s a travel record you can hang up, rather than another collection of photos you mean to sort someday. This Deluxe version includes added islands, US and Australian state lines, and Canadian provinces and territories, so you can track more than just which countries you’ve entered. A cross-country trip gets a little more credit here.

This suits the traveler who enjoys keeping score, but it also has a good life outside the airport crowd. Use it to uncover places as you study them, with the land and ocean infographics along the bottom giving you more to explore. It comes in a presentation tube, which makes it an easy gift for someone whose favorite conversation starts with where they’re going next. Scratch off a spot after each trip, and your travels slowly become the decoration.
