We all know the lead-up to the holidays is a magical time, but there's no doubt that it can also be stressful. The feeling of the hustle and bustle can quickly become taxing, and there's always that last minute scramble to get everything done on your list - shopping, wrapping, and all the other prep that goes into the season. It's easy to work yourself into overdrive this time of year, but it's important to realize when you need a breather and take some time for yourself. Most of us find ourselves caught up in the commercial side of things around this time, and at SASKIA we always strive to remind ourselves that there's a greater world out there. Through our jewelry we connect with vendors across the globe. We hear their stories and learn about their traditions.

With all of this in mind, we've partnered for the month of December with Rôamori, they specialize in helping people take that well deserved break, and expand their knowledge of other cultures at the same time. Amelia Ellenstein, an amazing woman in business, not only runs a gorgeous Instagram, she also founded Rôamori, a truly inspirational company. Rôamori creates once in a life time retreats on Maui that connect women with Native Hawaiian practitioners working to keep local traditions alive.

After experiencing so many different cultures around the globe, Saskia knows how important local traditions are and also how important it is to connect artisans from distant places with people all over the world. That's exactly the line of thinking that inspired Saskia to create her jewelry, and finding likeminded people that share this vision is an incredible thing. 

Amelia has grown her business from the ground up, and to show our support for her vision for a limited time, when you book a Rôamori retreat, you'll receive a complimentary Moss necklace by SASKIA. We hope you all get the chance to experience a Rôamori retreat, and we'd love to hear about it if you do!
