I had just found out that my closest and oldest friend in the world was marrying her boyfriend and moving with him to Australia. I was both elated and terribly sad. What would I do without her in my daily life?

Choosing a Vacation Gift with Meaning

Best Friend’s Wedding Gift? Thailand Offers Great Experiences!

Coming up with a wedding gift for both of them was one thing, but I really needed to find something amazing to give her as a departure gift. It had to be more than special. It had to represent our friendship of 16 years. It had to show her how much I cared and how much she meant to me.

Many Vacation Gift Options to Choose From

After spending a few weeks racking my brain and searching high and low for that certain something, I finally found it on Pickaboo.com! Instead of buying her something materialistic,  I wanted to gift her something that she could carry with her always. It would become one more a shared memory for the two of us! Pickaboo offered all kinds of adventures and activities to choose from. Then it jumped out at me – DIVING.

We had met at swimming camp all those years ago, so many of our shared vacations had been to the seaside, islands, resorts with swimming pools and the like. What better way than to seal our camaraderie than with a scuba diving course?

Finding the Perfect Vacation Gift

Pickabooclub.com offered all kinds of diving programs from trial days to full courses. I selected the Open Water Scuba Diving course with an accommodation package included. It was the easiest purchase I have made in years; quick, clear, simple and they even hand delivered the surprise right to her apartment. She was so excited and really shocked. The unexpected knock on the door with this extraordinary gift completely blew her mind!

So now we will have one last holiday together and she will be able to continue diving afterwards in Australia too. Every time she blows bubbles or sees colourful fish and marine life she will think of me, and all of that thanks to Pickaboo.
