Constantly buying beverages while traveling overseas can get expensive and most water bottles are too bulky and inconvenient to carry around. Thankfully, that problem is fixed with the HydraPak Stash. This nifty little bottle actually crushes down to one quarter of its size when not in use, making it small enough to fit in any backpack or even your pocket. It’s also 50 percent lighter than a traditional water bottle.

 

The Stash is made of thermoplastic polyurethane that is incredibly durable and flexible, allowing you to twist it down in a compact position once you’re done using it for the day. It can also be filled with either hot water or frozen, or any other beverage you can think of drinking. The bottle is also BPA and PVC free.

 

As an added bonus, the outside of the bottle holds an external capacity gauge that lets you track your hydration intake or measure out amounts if, say, you’re cooking in the wild and need to know how much liquid you need to use.

 

The top and bottom of the Stash are rigid so it still stands up when full and the 63mm wide mouth allows you to easily refill on the go. At only $23 a pop, the bottle is a fantastic tool for any traveler and sure to make life on the go a little easier while also saving some much needed cash.

What to Do During a Trip to Morro Bay, California

No, it’s not Monterey Bay. We’re talking Morro Bay, California, located about a 2.5-hour drive to the south, about halfway between San Jose and Los Angeles. A quieter destination, Morro Bay offers plenty for the outdoor adventurer to enjoy.
