If you’re a solo traveler or just feel awkward asking strangers to take pictures of you, I found the perfect product – XShot!

I’m 5’2 and can’t even carry my wide surfboard under my arm because of my short reach so when it comes to take pictures where… yeah, it’d be nice to be in them… I wish I had longer arms. The XShot is the perfect extender that gets you in the picture and captures more of those scenic backdrops while you explore. You can attach most any pocket / compact camera to it.

My on-the-go setup includes:

• Glif by Studio Neat
• iPhone 5
• Almost DSLR Free app
