Certain drinks take me to certain places. Irish Breakfast tea will always remind me of my grandmother teaching me how to correctly brew a pot, a shot of rum transports me to a Caribbean beach where I play cards underneath the palm trees, and I will never again pour a bit of milk into my tea without bringing to mind my Bangladeshi friend telling me that milk stops the steeping process and to be careful when you do it if you're brewing in your cup. For this swap you will send a first-class ticket to a faraway destination. Of course, this will be in the form of some tea and a letter telling them where that tea transports you. Two tea sachets or the equivalent in loose tea, senders choice because you will also be sending them that letter about where/when this tea takes you, and a little tour around the area. But remember, this is the 'cuppa and letter' group, so please make the letter long/intricate/detailed enough that your partner can peruse it while they're sipping, and really get away for a minute. The second sachet is so that your partner can return to that special place once more at a later time. Souvenirs, maps of the location, and relevant stickers/decorations of your letter are optional but very welcome, and may help you earn another heart. So, two cups of tea and a letter detailing where that tea transports you, sent to one partner. Ten days to send after signups, since you can be working on this before partners are assigned. Have you got your passport ready? |
