Back to (Language) School

Back to (Language) School

Pick up a few YS Notes to write an encouraging letter to the students in your life! 

As back-to-school season starts, we're appreciating the energy that this season gives people of all ages to explore their natural curiosities. For us, this is the season we enjoy studying design and typography books, while thinking about which languages we might explore for our future collections.

It's also a natural time to send a letter of encouragement and well wishes to those who are embarking on a new adventure, whether it's a new school, a move abroad, or a new area of study.

We enjoyed recently hearing from one customer how she plans to send a Music Lovers card to her daughter who is pursuing a music engineering degree, while another plans to mail a letter using the English-French version of our Kindred Spirit card to their friend studying abroad. The use of various languages on our cards also serve as gentle encouragements to stay connected to languages we have a particular fondness for, or to pursue ones that we've always wanted to learn.

As new experiences await those who seek them, a supportive letter letting our friends and family know we're behind them makes their adventure all the more exciting.
