- If you are thinking of adding a global spin but are not sure how to go about it, read this blog: Five Effective Tips for Going Global. I really like Tip #1 Start small. Focus on something you can change now and do it!
- Check out Dr. Hakim Williams. He was one of the presenters of my online course and he was amazing.

(I don't get any money from these recommendations. These are just things that I would love as a gift.)
- As a fan of science fiction, I remember reading and enjoying The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. Little did I realize that a company has made their own version of a babel fish. Waverly Labs created the Pilot Translating Earpiece. It can translate in real time different languages. I am thinking this would be a great gift!
- Grayl Water Filter- Definitely something to invest in when traveling in an area where the water is a bit questionable. Eliminates bacteria, protozoa, viruses and heavy metals.
