Buy an Eco-friendly Christmas present

BlogPost from 16th of December 2020

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who bought presents. Sunday we went far out to the countryside and gave out Christmas packs bought from our Eco Shop - by former guests, friends and family.

We chose to go to the countryside where our wonderful staff Sopha lives. Her house is near the beautiful lotus farms and the famous Floating Villages.

It´s a beautiful area, but it is the poorest of Siem Reap province. And they have a huge problem with plastic pollution. Earlier this year we did a huge clean up in this area, and managed to pick up 250 kilos of garbage. Most of it was plastic.

So it was specially nice to give Zero Waste Christmas packs to the locals living there. Packs that help out reducing plastic pollution.

Here are the photos of all packs we have given out so far. Everyone who contributes, get a photo of the family/person who received the gift, with a description of the person (s) in the picture.

YOU can also contribute by buying a Christmas present. You can choose between:

1) Zero Waste pack for one person - 19 usd. (Natural deodorant cream, bamboo comb, bamboo toothbrush and 20 toothpaste tablets. Wrapped in a hand made cotton bag, with our slogan - THERE IS NO PLANET B).

2) Zero Waste pack for a whole family - 49 usd. (Natural mosquito repellent cream, natural deodorant cream, bamboo combs and bamboo toothbrushes for the whole family and 50 toothpaste tablets. Wrapped in a hand made cotton Tote-bag, with our slogan - THERE IS NO PLANET B).

This is helpful in so many ways!

• You help us keep our shop open - even without tourists

• We can keep our staff

• You help us support small local companies

• You help us provide Eco-Friendly products for locals

• And reduce the amount of plastic ending up in the Cambodian nature

It is all described very well in this video:
