Personalised Farewell Gift: A Map of Your Shared Place | MapLove
The farewell gift that carries home with it: a personalised map of your shared place. For colleagues, friends, family. More personal than any gift voucher.
Farewell Gift: Why a Map of Your Shared Place is the Most Emotional Gift of All
Goodbye is hard. Whether a colleague is leaving the team, your best friend is moving to Berlin, or your child is heading off to university — you want to give something that says: "You're going, but you're taking a piece of us with you." A personalised map of your shared place does exactly that.
Why a Place Says More Than Just a Card
Flowers wilt. Greeting cards get tucked away. A gift voucher expires. But a map of the place where you've worked together, laughed, lived — that's something you unpack and hang on the wall immediately. In the new city. Above the new desk. In the hallway of the new flat. That's the difference between a gift and a memory.
