When it comes to birthday gifts I personally prefer giving and receiving something mostly non-material: having food, spending time together or… giving 30 paper cards. Each card comes with a challenge – 30 of them. The good thing is that you can include all of the things I just mentioned and also come up with your own ideas. With this post I wanna give you some inspiration…

This is what you need

  • 30 paper cards
  • your favorite pens (I used a black and golden one)
  • twine and a flower
  • to think about what your friend likes

Creating the cards

Then you basically start writing down one challenge / quote / … on a card. The idea is that your friend can read one card a day and gets to do one task. Or you just give him or her a gift, for example a voucher to go to the cinema, on one of the 30 days. Or he or she can read a nice quote. There are no limits – whether the cards are about food, self-care, awareness, travel, minimalism, sports or just jokes. This is probably the simplest but also a – in my opinion – meaningful and – depending on your creativity – a very personal (birthday) gift. In the pictures below you can see my 30 ideas, but for more inspiration I recommend having a look on Pinterest.

On the last card I wrote: “Give these cards to another person who you think should do the challenge.” I think passing them around and sharing the challenge with friends can be quite cool – one of 12 months of their year will definitely be different from the others. To keep the cards together I wrapped a twine around them, put a dried flower on top – et voilà!

What is your favourite (birthday) gift to give to your friends?

Book your accommodation

I usually book my accommodation via booking.com. They have a great choice & if you set some filters you will find the perfect place to stay.

Book your train in Europe

For train tickets in Europe it's best to use trainline. You can book tickets for different countries. They also know the bonus systems like BahnCard in Germany and will consider them in the pricing.

Book your bus and other transfers

Buy bus, train or boat tickets for many destinations on 12Go! You get an overview over all possible connections and can easily book your ticket through the platform.

Book a rental car

On rentalcars.com you can find an overview of different car hires & get the best deal.
