🌿Welcome

We’re Inga and Rainer—partners in life, slow travelers at heart, and believers in the beauty of simple things.After a lifetime of exploring Europe through scent, flavor, memory, and story, we began sending small parcels to people who needed a little moment of joy. What started as a gesture became something more:
a way to connect across borders, to share what makes life feel grounded, meaningful, and gently human.Each parcel we send is hand-selected, carefully wrapped, and inspired by real places we’ve loved—Italian kitchens, Alpine cafés, seaside markets. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is random. Every item is chosen to comfort, delight, or simply bring you back to yourself.This isn’t a business. It’s a bridge—from our table to yours.

🧺 About Us

We created Little European Things because we believe in care you can feel.We’ve both spent decades surrounded by the small rituals that make life softer—morning coffee in Italy, hand-written notes, a perfectly folded napkin, the quiet joy of a well-made jam. In a world that often rushes past beauty, we wanted to pause and share it.This project is personal.
We source every item with intention, wrap each parcel by hand, and include something you won’t find in any store: a human touch.Whether it's a box of calm for someone going through a hard time, a sweet surprise for a child, or a full-sensory dinner night inspired by our favorite places—we send only what we would love to receive.From slow food to slow living, from scent to story—this is harmony in a box.
