Brilliant news, Adventurers! I’m co-hosting a sustainable/fair/social enterprise Christmas Market on the first weekend in Advent.
My slogan “this is not a drill” is not just to remind us all that change in our lifestyle, business, modus operandi is overdue, it seems to be my new motto as well. I jump in right at the deep end by joining two girlfriends, two visionary social entrepreneurs (hint: you’ve met one of them here on BEAUTYCALYPSE and I’m loving her brand so much, it’s got its own tag) for a weekend of get-together, entertaining, shopping, laughing, learning and making the world a better place en passant. A premiere for me in my role as BEAUTYCALYPSE founder!
Those of you who are not based in Berlin or in proximity – don’t fret, we are thinking of totally branching out and bringing the concept to the world. Yup. But: one step at a time.
And of course you all will get a lot of green Christmas tips in the weeks to come.
UPDATE/PREVIEW!
There will be three awesome gift sets at an amazing rate (clutches and accessories and chocolates and cool, but eco greeting cards!); one gift set to win; and fantastic Dr Hauschka giveaways for every purchase, while stocks last.
Food: exotic snacks from Morocco and Ecuador, vegan wines from Germany.
Service: Uber drivers for guests. Woohoo!
