The Joy of Travel — No. 02

Some trips start with a photograph. Others with a line in a book, a page turned late at night, or a quiet moment of imagining somewhere else. This box was designed for that first spark — and for everything that follows. Objects that inspire movement, encourage reflection, and create small rituals of pleasure along the way. From the first dream of escape to the last hour of the journey home, wrapped in lambswool and something that smells like arrival.

Taschen — Great Escapes Europe: The Hotel Book Curated by Angelika Taschen, with texts by hotel and travel journalist Shelley-Maree Cassidy. 360 pages, 23.8 × 30.2 cm. Europe's most atmospheric hotels, guesthouses, and retreats — captured through stunning photography and editorial depth that reminds you how close beauty and escape truly are. Sometimes just a weekend away. The kind of book that makes you open a map before you close its cover.

La Mer — The Lip Balm Infused with La Mer's legendary Miracle Broth. Silky, deeply hydrating, long-lasting. Wind, cold, sun, cabin air — this balm protects against all of it without effort or excess. Elegant, discreet, and quietly indispensable. Not simply a beauty product — a symbol of caring for oneself without compromise, wherever the journey takes you.

Lochcarron of Scotland — Shepherd Emsket Lambswool Blanket Woven in the Scottish Borders from 100% lambswool. The Shepherd's Plaid — also known as the Border or Northumbrian Tartan — in natural tones that carry the quiet character of the Northern British landscape. 140 × 180 cm. Light enough to travel with, generous enough to offer true comfort. In a car, on a train, in a countryside hotel, or on a terrace overlooking somewhere new — this blanket is not just a textile. It is a companion.

Kunisawa — Find Sticky Memo Pad, Charcoal Designed and produced in Japan. A7 size, minimal aesthetic, exceptional paper quality.
