Grrrrrr

I'm really sorry about the lack of posts our Internet is still not set up (can you imagin!) actually it's quite a disaster and forewarn anyone who moves to Germany be prepared! They connected our Internet to another home needless to say its been very frustrating. I have also been busy pulling our home together my mom arrives tmrw yippee so it's been a whirlwind of furniture shopping etc. I hope to get my hostess with the mostest list out tmrw from Jakob's office! Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Best

Eco Christmas Gift Guide For Him!

























Yay! today's Eco Christmas gift is for that special man in your life!

Firstly I want to say I found this ah-mazing website We Three Leaves for men that carries ethical menswear. Loving how fashion forward they are which made it easy for me to find ungranola crunchy clothes for guys!

Knowledge Cotton Apparel Sweater
The Future Perfect Alarm Dock (made with sustainable harvested new growth beech wood and brass)
Plant Wake Up Organic Body Wash (with rosemary and lemongrass ps love the packaging)
Prospector Co Cavern Moss Flame Eco Soy Candle ( they have more great eco products for men)
Pact Organic Socks (love their philosophy "We are Solution Oriented" how much do they rock!)
United by Blue Wingtip Gloves ( for every product sold United by Blue removes 1 pound of trash from  the worlds ocean and waterways they definitely get two green thumbs up!)
Shwood Oswald Sunglasses
Min New York Absinthe Man Soap ( love love love the packaging and how great is the name and hello 100% natural!)
