Tea from SA



I am one happy girl! Look what Valkyrie from South Africa sent me? She even thoughtfully left them in the shopping bag so I'd know where to go when I visit. They all sound so wonderful and I'm not sure which to try first!

My joy at receiving this nice package actually gave me an idea for an international trade/swap! I sent Valkyrie some Reese's Cups, something she can't get there, and she sent me something I couldn't buy here. Wouldn't it be cool to swap things from your country and get other things in return?

That IS cool. I recently sent some things from the US to Pixy in SA. It is a lot of fun to share like that!

I'm so glad that they got there (and weren't squashed at all). My favourite is the five roses one. Like I mentioned before I'm not a huge fan of the 'rooibos' (red bush) variety, but it's pretty popular with many people here and many tea officanados worldwide - so enjoy! THanks again for the Reeces - I'm really REALLY looking forward to enjoying them soon!!!

That is a good idea. Unfortunitly, the stuff you would send, wouldn't come from Columbus, because we don't have anything cool here.

that was one of the reason why i joined the tea swap but after the teas that you guys sent me was taken away but the customs office i decided to stop. australia has really strict rules on what can and cannot enter.

I would totally love an international swap!
