The Overseas Package

We have sent many packages abroad in the past on request, often from loved ones missing out on big adventures and new babies as well as loss and hard times when someone especially needs some TLC. Being in different countries makes it even harder to be there, in those moments.

We’ve added The Overseas Package starting with a selection of countries that our customers have most frequently requested to send packages to: Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Germany. More countries will be added, so do contact us if you have a suggested location for us.
