The Connection Book is live on Kickstarter: #BreakTheFeed

Stay connected, even when your phone's put away. Our Kickstarter campaign for the Connection Book is live.

What it is

Meet the Connection Book, the offline version of Tribela. A page for every friend, with their birthday, a moment you shared and space for a photo. Arrives by Christmas.

Why we made it

Social media has become the place where we keep everything about our friends: their birthdays, their numbers, our memories with them. But sometimes you just want to step away from your phone without ever being disconnected.

“One of my favourite things to do as a kid was to take my address book to school and get everyone's information in my book. I wanted to bring that back.” — Natalie Boll, founder of Tribela

Inside the book

Every page is designed to be filled in by hand:

  • A two-page spread for every friend: When your paths crossed, their birthday, where life has taken them, what you appreciate, a moment you shared, and a space for a photo or drawing.
  • A birthday section at the back: A page for every month.
  • Back to Tribela, whenever you want: A QR code that brings you back to Tribela whenever you want to connect online.

Who it's for

It's for anyone enjoying time offline, for kids collecting friends at school the old-school way, and as the perfect gift for a friend taking a break, for your child or for anyone who loves staying close.
