Society has demanded a more convenient way to smoke hookahs while traveling for years, and someone has finally stepped up to bat and delivered.

HoboHookah is a portable hookah designed specifically for travel and opening up conversation. Just pop the sucker on to a vodka bottle (or any bottle, for that matter) and voila – an ice breaker is born.

The social aspect of hookahs is vastly misunderstood to non-smokers, and this small wonder (30cm long) is a step in the right direction for hookah appreciation, in which America reduces its charms to low-lit metropolitan bars with dull ambient/world music.

An avid hookah smoker myself, I’m pleased to report that the HoboHookah not only works like a charm, but pulls better than the majority of expensive, jewel-adorned big pieces found in night spots.

Still not convinced? Take a gander at the video below:
