I really do love a good card. My favorite kind of card is succinct, sweet and smart (you might know this from HERE). So I was delighted while the bf and I were shopping for souvenirs on vacation in St. Lucia I stumbled on these beauties from Naïeli.
Of course leave it to me to find an ethical and sustainable souvenir for myself while I was on vacation, lol…I’m not going to lie, this fact made me really happy :).
Naïeli is locally made by artisans in St. Lucia using recycled paper and vegetable inks.
My darling dude and I pick out gifts for each other when we go on vacation. So when I squealed and called out to him hands flailing like I do when I’m excited, he immediately said, “Well, here’s your St. Lucia gift.”
So these two cards from Naïeli were gifted to me by the bf :).
I mean even the back of these cards are just so so so so charming! I love how Naïeli shares that it’s printed in limited quantities. Makes my little souvenir feel very special :).
And here are some pics from our wonderful trip.
Oh friends, it was so incredibly relaxing and easy and random (lol, St. Lucian people are apparently huge fans of country music). This teeny tiny island (27 miles long/ 14 miles wide) is so lush and full of surprises.
Are you ready for my favorite picture from vacation?!?!
Well first a little back story…I booked horseback riding for us without consulting the BF. Maybe a tad mean of me, but hey it was my birthday trip!
So my bf was nervous (confessed to me later) but lucky for him he got the most perfect perfect horse for his first ride! It was soooooooo naturally slow and docile that he was lagging behind in a real real way!
I snapped this picture from my horse which seems miles away from him in this picture, lol.
Omigosh I think this is the cutest picture ever! I’m not lying when I tell you just looking at this picture makes me laugh out loud and smile.
He’s just so far and cute!!! 😀
I hope you enjoyed my little love from St. Lucia. I think St. Lucia’s tourism tagline gets it just right…”St. Lucia—Simply Beautiful”, is the most apt phrase for this place.
So jealous friend!! Those cards are very cute, and it looks like you had an amazing time! The pic of the bf so far away is funny and cute.
