Five Star Gift Ideas

For a mom who loves urban exploration, I have a few unique and meaningful gift ideas that she will absolutely love.

1. City Adventure Pass: Purchase a city adventure pass for her, which provides access to various guided tours and expeditions to explore abandoned buildings, hidden gems, and forgotten places within a city. This gift will enable her to embark on thrilling explorations, learn about the history of different neighborhoods, and have unforgettable experiences.

2. Photography Book: Find a photography book that showcases stunning and captivating images of urban landscapes and abandoned places. Choose one that aligns with her interest in urban exploration and can serve as a source of inspiration for her own photography adventures. This gift will allow her to appreciate the beauty of urban decay from the comfort of her own home.

3. Vintage Maps: Get her a set of vintage maps, focusing on the cities or regions she is most interested in exploring. These maps can be framed as wall decor to inspire and guide her next urban exploration endeavors. It's not only a meaningful gift but also a practical one, as she can use them to navigate her way through different neighborhoods.

4. GoPro Camera: A GoPro camera would be an excellent gift for your mom's urban exploration adventures. Its durable design is perfect for capturing stunning footage and photos in abandoned buildings and other unique locations. With its wide-angle lens and waterproof capabilities, she can document her explorations, create vlogs, or share her experiences with friends and family.

5. Urban Exploration Gear: Consider gifting her some essential gear for urban exploration, such as sturdy hiking boots, a backpack with compartments for equipment, a headlamp for exploring dark places, and a durable camera strap. These items will enhance her comfort, safety, and overall experience during her expeditions.

6. Urban Exploration Workshop: Look for urban exploration workshops or photography classes in your area. Gifting her the opportunity to attend a workshop or class will give her the chance to learn new skills, meet like-minded individuals, and further dive into her passion for urban exploration.

7. Customized Urban Exploration Map: Create a personalized map of her favorite city or an upcoming destination she plans to explore. Mark abandoned buildings, hidden tunnels, or other interesting sites she might want to visit, along with notes or descriptions. This unique and thoughtful gift will enable her to plan her exploration routes more efficiently and keep track of her discoveries.

Remember, the best gift is one that shows you understand and appreciate her interests. With these ideas, you can create a memorable and meaningful gift for your mom's upcoming birthday.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
