Mermaid's Holiday Gift Guide

‘Tis the Season

for kindness, connection, cheer, and generosity.

After the year we’ve had, I encourage you to buy less and do more. Do more random acts of kindness to brighten up strangers’ days and spread hope. More adventures and activities with your loved one. Acts of service for those in need. Crafts with your kids. Baking with your friends. Hosting your neighbours. Conversing with elders. Playing with kids.

Many humans out there this season have been deprived of connection. GIVE MORE OF THIS.

If you want to spoil your loved ones, too, then here are some ways to spend your money AND invest in genuine green economy.


If you’re already an earthed up human and your fam has no idea what to give you, send them this link and let them benefit from the discount codes.

05. Something to Read

Give the gift of learning! Whether another lock down strikes or we’ve just learned how to slow down and read again, books are a timeless gift that keep on giving. “I Quit Plastics” is an intro guide to the eco-friendly life. It is full of strategies for quitting plastics, reconnecting to nature, recipes for making your own products, and discussions of environmental ethics, privilege, and localism to name just a few topics.

Invest in the movement, invest in your loved ones with a copy of my book “I Quit Plastics.” Read more about the book here and order yours below.

06. Something to Experience

It’s hard knowing what we will be able to do in 2021, so my top experience gifts this year are still online learning programs! <3 If you’re in an area where you can support local tourism, DO IT! Or better yet, surprise your favourite humans by bringing them on an adventure of your planning. Just write a card and tell them to be available during a certain time and day. Collect them and take them for a magic day out.

Please support these epic humans. They are revolutionising an industry that needs revolutionising BAD. In 2019 alone, the world generated 53.6 million tonnes of e-waste. The more natural materials used in our technology, the less waste will linger on our planet for centuries and will instead compost back to nature. Invest in some truly epic eco tech this season.
