This is an international care package swap for all of you vegans & vegetarians out there. You will have one partner and you will send them: A letter talking about being vegan/vegetarian in your town. How long have you been? What are your favorite restaurants? Why did you decide to become vegan/vegetarian? Is that how you were raised? How do your non-veg friends or family react to your animal-free lifestyle? What are your favorite books & recipe books on veganism/vegetarianism? In addition to the letter, look at the ideas below and pick 5 to send to your partner. *A burned CD of your favorite vegetarian/vegan podcast *A new or gently used book about vegetarianism/veganism *A new or gently used vegan/vegetarian cookbook *A new or gently used vegan/vegetarian magazine *Several Vegan/vegetarian stickers *Several Vegan/vegetarian buttons *A new vegan/vegetarian t-shirt *A nice handmade item related to veganism/vegetarianism like a painting, clothing, or stuffies. (Please no ATC's, inchies, or matchboxes.) *Make a few of your favorite vegan/vegetarian recipes, take pictures, and send the recipes & pictures. (If you're mailing to a vegan, remember to send them vegan recipes only) *Pictures from your favorite vegan/vegetarian restaurant. Take pictures of the restaurant and the food. What's your favorite item on their menu? How often do you go there? What's the vibe like there? Please do not send any actual food to your partner. We all know how conscious we are as vegans/vegetarians about what we eat, and so let's be on the safe side and avoid the food issue altogether. You can list below if you are either vegan or vegetarian (or put it in your profile), but please don't make any special requests on what you'd like to receive. Any special requests will be deleted. Let your partner pick something great for you, and then be surprised when you get your package of fun! People with a 4.8 rating or higher and no recent no sends are welcome to join. No newbies allowed on this one. |
