Sustainable Gifts: 10 Ideas 🌱<\/h1><\/h1><\/div>

Birthdays and Christmas are amazing. That\u2019s for sure.
\nBut if you\u2019re are just a bit like me, inspiration for gifts is always welcome 😅<\/h3>\n

For you I\u2019m digging up memories: What wonderful presents crossed my way in the last years?
\nMy personal top ten: Sustainable!\u00a0 🌍<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

1. Hiking together<\/h3>\n<\/div>

Did you know that experiences are a much better boost for happiness than things? That\u2019s\u00a0scientifically proven.\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0Even more so if you\u2019re experiencing together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

It doesn\u2019t have to be an expensive spa weekend. Almost ten years ago I received a \u201eWilhelm Tell hike\u201c on the shores of lake Lucerne<\/a> as a gift. And I still remember it today. The clear light, the green meadows 🌄, the incredibly beautiful lake.<\/p>\n

Fortunately Switzerland is full of wonderful places. Select one, find a beautiful picture and print a voucher for a hiking day together. I\u2019m sure you will both really look forward to it!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

On the day of the hike you simply bring a delicious picknick and you know the way. Who needs more for a bunch of unforgettable memories?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

2. DIY for many people<\/h3>\n

Sometimes you want to give the same present to a lot of people \u2013 but it should nonetheless have a personal touch. Instead of adapting the present to the presentee you can add that touch by making a DIY present.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what we did last Christmas for our partners like the\u00a0integration workshop EPI<\/a>\u00a0who are sending out our coffee parcels. We wanted to thank all the people who help us all year round \u2013 and everyone should get the same present.<\/p>\n

I filled more than 30 bottles with olive oil flavored with herbs from our garden. Sounds like a lot of work \u2013 but actually it is also a lot of fun to work with products that smell so good.\u00a0 One of the presentees had tears in her eyes. So the work was in any case worth it. If you need a recipe (it\u2019s really very simple) just click on the picture on the right.<\/p>\n

This year we already had a nice idea for our partners \u2013 but I won\u2019t tell you now what it is 😉<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
