For the frequent flier
The perfect gift for the travel lovers in your life!
Curated boxes are so much fun to receive. These are great for people that you may not see this holiday season, but want to send them something right to their house.
Munwa Boxes are designed by Bali Alumni Caroline aka @carolinevoyages. Each box is highly curated and features lifestyle products from around the world, allowing you to have a luxurious, cultural experience from the comfort of your living room.
For the fashionista
This full-color nail art workbook by NYC celebrity manicurist (and Pangea Alumni!) Julie Kandalec is an educational sketchbook for nail art lovers at every level.
Printed on heavy paper, it features color palettes inspired by global travels, color theory, plus 27 pages of blank nail shapes to make your nail looks come to life! Fun for all ages.
Another find for the fashionista on your list are these one-of-a-kind polymer clay earrings! Each Vacay + Clay small-batch collection is inspired by Bali Alumni Lindsay‘s travels. Denpasar from the Bali collection will transport anyone straight to Indonesia – exactly what your travel-obsessed friend needs in 2020.
This set it bold and made to stand out! Made from polymer clay, sometimes brass, and nickel-free earring backs, all Vacay + Clay earrings are intentionally designed to be lightweight and uniquely designed so no one pair is exactly the same. Find more from the Bali collection, as well as a Guanajuato and Nomad Collection here.

For the self-care advocate
2020 has given us plenty of reasons to feel anxious, stressed, and depressed— which is exactly why self-care has never been more important.
Alumni Laura aka @bylauraabate created Oh Cocoon to empower entrepreneurs to create balance, not burnout!
Oh Cocoon‘s soy candles smell like a sweet blend of florals and fruits designed to elevate your cocooning moment. Each one is 10 oz of natural wax that burns for 55+ hours with a wooden wick that adds a relaxing crackling sound. The perfect gift for ANYONE on your list.
Another gift idea for the self-care enthusiast comes from Greece Alumni Linda @linda_bogdanov.
Perfect for removing makeup, face masks, and putting toner on, @tayvada.life‘s reusable bamboo face pad set comes with 14 pads – 7 terry bamboo, 7 grey bamboo fleece. It even includes a mesh washing bag and comes in a tropical-inspired box.
Tayvada is a self-care brand with a focus on creating high quality, eco-conscious products. In addition to creating eco-conscious products, every purchase contributes to a carbon offset initiative through our partner Cool Effects. A gift you can feel good giving!
