How we replaced Christmas cards with a greener version
Simona Pralovska 30.01.2020 About Lexika Reading time: 1 min.At this time of year, cards and little somethings pile up and mostly end up unused in a drawer. That’s why we’ve been playing with the idea of an unusual and exceptional gift that would also do some good.
We considered several alternatives, eyeing up various organisations and associations engaged in different activities. Joining the zero-waste office project in autumn helped us decide. To thank our clients for their cooperation in 2019, we symbolically gave them trees in the Vlčia nature reserve in Slovakia.
Why trees?
During Christmas time, we’re overwhelmed by ads which convince us to buy our close ones this and that because it’s just what they want and need… Well then, we’ll leave that to Santa. ?
But what everyone really needs is a healthy environment, green spaces, and fresh air. That’s why we decided to replace this year’s Christmas cards with our greener version.
Thanks to our clients, we’ve contributed to the enlargement of the strictly protected area in the Čergov mountains in eastern Slovakia and a better environment for everyone.
The cherry on this green cake is that you can visit the Vlčia nature reserve anytime and absorb the delightful atmosphere only nature itself can create.
The next time you go there, send us your pictures of this beautiful spot in Slovakia. 🙂
I began my journey at LEXIKA during my university days in 2017. LEXIKA, the people that form part of it, and the translation industry have grown on me since then. One of the day-to-day challenges I have to face is finding new talented translators. Furthermore, I take care of developing good and open relationships with our long-standing translators who make it possible for us to do what we love. Over time, I was put in charge of marketing activities and internal HR. I don’t have to worry about my job turning into a daily grind and I learn something new every day. :)
