Our online editor-in-chief, Valeria Gomez, would love to receive gift cards, especially to her favorite store, Outdoor Voices. 

For the friend that is always cold: 

Our print editor-in-chief, Julia Shands, asked for a Barefoot Dreams blanket, it will come in handy for this winter weather. 

For the tech- savvy friend: 

Staff writer, Matthew Cheatham thinks a Slim Tile Finder would be a great gift idea to keep things organized.
