How Thither Can Prepare You For Your Next Trip
Sometimes Amazon.com reviews just don’t cut it. That’s why Thither (formerly The Travel Gear Reviews) exists.
It’s for the people who want to know more about a product than just “nice”:
Thither is a travel gear site that takes the guesswork out of shopping for gear. We’ve cut through the junk and have reviews of the best travel gear so you don’t have to waste time with the mediocre.
Every week Thither posts reviews, videos reviews and articles about how we used our gear while traveling. Reviews range from flashlights to luggage, that we are personally using and testing in the field.
There’s millions of review sites out there, and we definitely don’t claim to be the best, but one thing’s for sure: our reviews are completely honest.

About Jonathan Looi
Hi! I’m Jonathan, founder and main reviewer for Thither.com.
Prior to traveling around the world, I had wondered, “What gear should I take with me?”
That’s why I’ve started this site: to help others know what to pack, find out what gear best fits their needs and to get a feel of travel products before they buy them.
A little bit about me:
I’m 21 and currently a senior in college.
Want to know even more about me? Read this interview I did with Knowledge@Wharton High School, the high school branch of Wharton Business School: Meet One of the World’s Most Well-Traveled Teens. A long time ago I was in the New York Times’ Student Council and wrote this article in the NY Times.
