The best gift in the world? Well, that depends of course on who it's for. I love to buy gifts for people and will quite happily spend hours working out the best thing I could give them. You don't need an extravagant budget just lots of time to ponder what would surprise them and yet be something they really need and want. The worst gifts you can buy people are the generic ones, soaps, shavers, scarfs and so on. Be more specific. They show little thought and surprise no one. If your sister's getting married, think about things like wedding hair accessories. If you brother's just bought a car, think about car accessories. Some of the best gifts I have given are ones I have made, cuttings from plants lovingly grown over months or even a year until they are big enough to present as a gift. Homemade travel diaries with travel dates already marked in alongside flight numbers and train times and little maps of the cities to be visited. The question 'What's the best gift in the world' can't be answered with a magical product, the answer is of course the gift you spent time on, thinking about, making, choosing because in today's world one of the most valuable things we have is time and giving that to someone has to be the best gift in the world.Further Reading: info.com | nationalgeographic.com | merriam-webster.com
