international

I love walking into a coffee shop and taking that first deep breath, smelling the freshly ground and brewed coffee, slightly sweet air, and taking a look around to see that coffee shop atmosphere. This swap is all about the coffee experience.

We will have one partner, and we will send them about $10 worth of coffee themed items. This can (obviously!) be actual coffee, but it can also include flavored coffee drink mixes, coffee mugs, things that go with coffee, coffee decorations ~ anything you can think of!!

This is an international swap, 4.5 or higher rating, newbies welcome with filled out profile. If the above does not apply to you and you still wish to participate, please message me ~ I will not message you before banning you if you do not meet the requirements!

Happy Swapping!!

I am totally addicted to Starbucks ~ I go nearly every day! I don't drink plain coffee, but I love coffee drinks (my favorite is a caramel mocha!!). I also have a coffee-themed kitchen!!

Well, I am a regular coffee lover. I'm the boring one who goes to Starbucks and gets a tall plain coffee - then douses it with cream and sugar :)

I drink organic coffees - fair trade when possible. Local roasts are a favorite as well. I like ground or whole bean and LOVE coffee candies - but not chocolate covered coffee beans. :)

I am so excited about this swap, although lately I haven't been able to drink coffee due to gallbladder trouble. But I love coffee art, journals, really anything coffee themed except for the drinkable stuff.

signed me in but kkk_katie 10 days between asigning partners and sending date is very short for an international swap . A package from here to the USA takes at least 10 days and considering we need a few time to buy our items , all overseas partners are going to be late senders :o). Can't you add some days extra please ?

Katie 06/ 7/2007 #

Actually, lamazon, the deadline date is only the date that your package needs to be sent by, NOT the date that your partner needs to receive it!! I'm sure that anyone who is receiving from an overseas partner will be understanding that it certainly takes longer for the package to arrive! Does that sound better?

lamazon 06/ 8/2007 #

I know perhaps I'm tooooo punctual :o)) I went to the shops and allready found some nice items . If I finish my pacakge before assignments I can send it on time .

Hello! I am a coffee addict!! There was another coffee swap that was cancelled, and I was so excited about that, I already had stuff ready. I am so happy to have another coffee swap. But please, help me by only sending decaf. Also- only Splenda as sweeteners if any sweets are sent at all.

Cheers!

What a great idea, I'm a coffee addict too but I drink mine, hot, strong and black. And like Kkk_Katie I love walking into a coffee shop and smelling the coffee. There is a little place we always go to when down south and they roast their own coffee first thing every morning so we always try to go in when they are roasting. There is a place in Christchurch that also roase there own but because of work I just don't get there. Starbucks is right in the center of the city and as I work from home on the edge of the city I don't offen get in. Must go and make a coffee. Coffee hugs to you all from New Zealand :-)

Katie 06/ 8/2007 #

I'm smiling at all of your comments as I sip my tall caramel mocha!!

Banchomarba1 06/ 8/2007 #

Hey Angel Fairy Kathleen- we are of like mind.

We like our coffee "black as night and bitter as spite", as my grandmother used to say. But I do appreciate a good flavored coffee.

AngelFaeryKathleen 06/ 9/2007 #

I'm just sitting down to read this as I drink my Sunday morning Coffee!

AngelFaeryKathleen 06/ 9/2007 #

ps - I drink one called "Start me Up" first thing in the morning, it's not as strong as the "Italian" I favour latter in the day. Yes we have about 6 to 8 differnt coffees in the cupboard at any given time.

I love coffee so much my hubby bought me a commercial Bunn 2-burner machine, and a grinder, some years ago for Mother's Day. I like my coffee very strong, with milk. At coffee shops I get an Americano, and when I can find it, beans called Snakebite. oooooh, bitter I like flavoured coffee too, with dessert :)

lamazon 06/11/2007 #

Tip :If you have to send a package to Europe please wright the 7 with an extra line in the middle . Offently postmen take the overseas 7 for a 1 !

Little question : If possible can you put real stamps on the packages ? Not those ugly white postoffice things :o))) I know many stamp collectors overhere and real stamps are very rarely this days .

THANK YOU VERRRRRRRRRY MUCH

AngelFaeryKathleen 06/13/2007 #

Hi Mrs.D I also get Americano when out buying coffee and it is always black, some times a little weak but then some places don't know what i'm talking about.

Katie 06/14/2007 #

All right, everyone, it's getting close ~ I hope you're all ready for the caffeine jolt :)

Katie 06/15/2007 #

Time to check out your partner and get swapping!

Qwarkus 06/17/2007 #

I will be sending goodies from an Aussie coffee company, so if you are my swap partner, I hope you enjoy.

mrsD 06/22/2007 #

AngelFaeryKathleen 06/23/2007 #

Miet, keep an eye out in7 to 10 days as there is something winging it's way to you from New Zealand, I hope you will enjoy it :-)

Banchomarba1 06/24/2007 #
