This is where I'm from! International Swap

Love where you live? Share it with the rest of us! In this fun international swap each swapper will have one partner. You will send this partner EACH of the following items related to the place you live:

-a keychain

-a postcard (BLANK, not written on)

-a souvenir magnet

-a food item (wrapped, new in package)

-a pencil or pen

You will be sending your partner 5 items. One of EACH listed. You can send something related to the city you live, state, country, a local landmark, etc. Each item doesn't have to be from the same location. For example: a postcard from California, a pencil from San Francisco, a magnet from the Golden Gate Bridge....etc. Each location should be near the spot where you live. Each item needs to be related to the spot you live, no general items. No items should be free advertising items. Items should be fun and touristy. Items don't necessarily have to say the name of the place, but explain how the item relates to where you are from if it isn't obvious. Have fun and share the place you live and love! Swap value is $7. This swap is sender's choice.

International, experienced (at least 5 type-3 swaps), no ratings below 4.9.

Please respond with questions, comments, concerns, etc.

Note: Since the swap date is pretty far away, when it's time to assign partners, I'll check profiles to make sure everyone meets the proper criteria. I'll also be dropping anyone who hasn't logged in within 10 days of the signup date.

Happy swapping!

Have joined this. Can it be an item from where I work, rather than live?

Do you work somewhere much different than you live?

I work in London, but live in Witham, which is about 40 miles away. It is very difficult to get anything Witham related. In fact, I don't think there IS anything Witham related!

Yes! That is fine!

Sounds like a cool swap:) I´m from a small town so for now I´m just watching...We do not have any pens/magnets/keychains sold...I MIGHT get some from the city administration...but it´s still uncertain...

I live close enough to a couple of visitor centers and shop there often but I have never seen any pens or pencils. I can get every thing else so I guess I'll have to watch for now and see if I can find a pen.

I'm so sorry, due to unexpected personal circumstances,I have to stop all the swaps that I've joined and that I haven't partner yet. I'm sorry to drop , but I must urgently get out of town and it is going to be impossible. I'm sorry girls, next time, this situation will be temporal.

I too would like to send something from somewhere other than where I live, as I do NOT love where I am forced to live by conditions beyond my control. If I had my choice I would be living in Alaska, so I would like to send a package of Alaska things rather than from Arizona. My body is in Sierra Vista, but my heart is in Fairbanks! Would that be OK?

Oh dear, I'd love to join this but we don't get any souvenir magnets where I live! Will something else do in its place?
