By Morten Suhr Hansen

I hope you are all having some wonderful festive days this week! For many, it has been a lovely break from a hectic everyday life and also – a special year. Time for the family, reading, and relaxing. But for some, it is also a time embossed by the corona crisis that has been running since 2020. But no matter if you’re part of the first or the second group, the holidays are a time for giving –  and subscription geeks like us love gifts that last for a long time.

Therefore, we’ve collected five delayed presents that you can use with your partner, your friends, your pet – or just for yourself! Get inspired for a year of new experiences right here:

Masterclass – Learn from the best

A simple international subscription concept that is just too good not to mention, is the American Masterclass that offers online courses within an array of exciting hobbies and professions. Courses taught by the biggest masters on Earth. Here, you can learn how to play chess from Gary Kasparov, take a cooking class with Gordon Ramsey or learn how to play the drums from Ringo Star.

A course typically consists of 10 video lessons and is supplemented by written handbooks. The perfect gift for the one that has everything or to the inquisitive type. Masterclass costs around 220 dollars for a year and right now, they are offering a 2-for-1 subscription, so you can give one to yourself and someone you love.

Audiobooks and e-books are the hit of 2021! The whole world is streaming books like never before and the market for audiobook services has grown in the past year, where new and exciting services have joined the market.

Whichever service is the best for you, an audiobook subscription is good for both the mind and the heart – so why not gift it to someone close to you?
