I’m all over exciting new travel gadgets, but here’s one that is so far from being high tech that it really threw me for a loop - Travelodge had cited research that 63% of the nation is sleep deprived due to stress (and traveling around can certainly disrupt your slumber too), so they’ve come up [...]
