This is the online/e-mail version of a swap that I did about a month back.

My World in Pictures INTERNATIONAL

So I've always wanted to know what it's like in someone else's hometown. I think a great way to do this would be through speaking through pictures. You will have two partners. You will e-mail your partners pictures of your favorite places to go, your house, your old school, the local hang out, restaurants, mall, anything! It would be best if the pictures you sent are pictures that you took yourself, or were taken by a family, or friend, not just some picture you grabbed off the internet.

One requirement however is that you list short(or long!) descriptions of each picture. You may do this by pasting the pictures in a Word document so that you can easily type their descriptions, or, you can e-mail the pictures, and in your e-mail give a numbered list with the descriptions.

For example:

  1. This cool cafe a couple of blocks away that is a popular hang out because of its terrific lasagna.
  2. This is my old highschool. Our school mascot was an eagle and football games were always a huge event.

Please feel free to comment here or PM me if you have any questions :)

could it be in a blog?

thatshot7 12/ 5/2008 #

ok that would work! :) as long as you send the link to your partners and the blog is dedicated to them, so as to maintain the personal quality of the swap

How many pictures do you want us to send out? : ) Approximately, of course.

Moineau 12/ 5/2008 #

Sounds like great fun. I'll go with the private blog option rather than the email, if that's ok.

@Erdbeersternchen the last time I did this, I think I sent around.. 6-8 maybe :) I think 6 should be the minimum number of picture sent, especially since it's an e-swap.

@Moineau the blog option would be totally fine, I actually might do that myself :) Just please make sure to personalize it for your partners.

does it have to be my hometown? can it be the place that I'm living right now?

thatshot7 12/12/2008 #

@rainypig sure :) whatever's easier for you

Moineau 12/12/2008 #

I'm with rainypig: I grew up in about 7 or 8 different twons, some of which I probably won't ever go back to. But my current world is FUN and I'd love to share that with my partners ;)

swap deadline has been extended to give time to those on holiday vacation! :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the deadline extension! I just sent out an apology to my partner as I hadn't been able to send my pictures on time!

I'll send them out before the new year!
