The Compass Club

Every month, an envelope arrives from somewhere in the world. Inside is a dispatch from Ella: part travel diary, part love letter to a place, written in the voice of someone who has been paying close attention.

Each month's envelope contains four things. A letter, written as a heartfelt dispatch from the destination. An A4 watercolour illustration, original artwork capturing the landscapes, faces and moments that define the place. Field notes covering the untold history and culture: the folklore, the customs, and the kind of knowledge no guidebook thinks to share. And a local recipe to try at home, alongside collected phrases, curiosities and small wonders from the road.

The Compass Club is available as a monthly subscription, a six-month gift, or an annual membership. Annual members receive an exclusive welcome gift and surprises throughout the year. Free worldwide shipping on all plans. Cancel monthly at any time.

This is not a newsletter. It is not a digital download. It is something that arrives in an envelope, that sits well on a shelf, and that reads well the second time around.
