In the #1 swap we had 17 different countries, would be great to get this number again :).

For this swap you answer at least 17 of the questions below.
Some require only one word answers, for others you might write a long paragraph ... just use common sense ;).
Use pretty stationary. The letter can be typed or handwritten. You need to write the questions also.
Include for your partner 3 or more small somethings from your country (postcard,used stamp, ticket, flyer, magazine cut out, .....), and consider adding a short note on what you sent :).

3.)How would you describe the landscape?

4.)What would you say is a normal diet in your country? What are some of your country's traditional dishes?

18.)If I were to visit your area, what would you tell me to do?

19.) Share one or more festivals (religious or country-related) that are common/popular (or just rather unic) in your country.

20.) What do you know/think about your partner´s country? (in case it´s not all positive - pls be honest, but nice and friendly :))

I am a bit disappointed that my partner in this swap lives in a country that is so close to mine (The netherlands - France), both in Western Europe. Was looking forward to a country far away. But my partner can't help it, so I'll make it a nice swap. But I hope betty194, the coordinator will read this and remember it for a next time. Perhaps \i am more lucky with the partner who has to send me this swap.

betty194 03/ 6/2014 #

I sent the following pm to @Johanna51

Hi!

I see that you have been on SB for quite some time now, so you shurley know that the host can´t match the partners, the system does it.

I am from Austria and receive from Germany, I am happy to get to know my neighbour country even better.

I recommend you not to join this kind of swaps anymore if the country you send/receive from is that important for you. Rather seek for private swap partners.

Best wishes, Betty

For Betty: thank you for your explanation and quick answer.

tonewadventures 03/13/2014 #

Dang, I saw the second one just now but its way part the signup deadline. I will look out for the 3rd one. @betty194 any idea when you will put that up?

betty194 03/13/2014 #

So sorry that I didn´t post invitations on your walls :(. I will shurley do another round, but don´t know yet when. Of course you can copy my swap and host your own, although you should ask @Hollycarole92 for allowence I think, becouse the questions are from her swap.
