I hope living in a diverse city ( L.A. ) is ok too ?

hmm, i really like the idea but i see a bit of a problem with the food thing... i'm in austria and let's say i send a piece of the famous sacher cake it will go bad until it arrives plus, it won't be shipped into certain countries (some have strict food import laws...)

if that could be taken care of somehow (like instead of food send a famous recipe or something) i'd love to take part...

Is it possible to change the edible thing to may a small souvenir? I think it is kind of weird getting edible things in the mail, but that is just me.

well maybe we could send something like...let's say...candies, cookies, dried food...I don't think it's a problem to send them...

the cd has to be original or I can copy one of mine putting a nice cover or maybe one similar to the original?

The food thing I was thinking dry foods like Australia is famous for it's Vegimite or America has Oreo's, Japan has pocky etc etc

I just clicked on my partner's profile for this swap, and it says that the account has been deleted. She emailed me a week or so ago saying she was sending it.

April7x 04/28/2007 #

I didn't get my package either :(

Citrus, you should get yours. It was sent out last week.
