Why give an eco-friendly travel experience?
Because tourism is the fourth leading cause of environmental pollution, and when we choose our holidays is always better to do it responsibly. This means minimizing the environmental impact choosing eco-friendly accommodation and sustainable means of transport, but it also implies getting in touch with the reality of the place, finding less touristic destinations, promoting the local economy, living a real experience, such as one in an Albergo Diffuso in a small Italian town.

Glue the corners, and you’ll have the lower part and the upper part of the box-case.
At this point you just put the travel voucher gift along with a small message inside the box-case and close it.
To make it look like a real case, cut out a piece of paper and paste it on the narrow and long side of the box like a handle.
Finally, you can complete the package by adding a colored ribbon around the box.
