Slow Rural Travel + Artisan Crafted Souvenirs | Axel Deroubaix

Axel Deroubaix is co-founder of the Cocolo Travel company. During the coronavirus, they have transitioned to online travel shows and monthly subscription souvenir boxes connected to the travel video introductions of the artisans and local people who make the products. This innovative service is called the PekoPekoBox subscription service for traditional Japanese souvenir delivery worldwide.

Here we will talk about some of their travel products and services focused on promoting local artisans, culture, and high-quality experiences at a slower (more meaningful) pace.
