I have a German penpal that I would like to send some gifts to. I wanted to send her something that is specific to America or to the New England (MA, VT, NH) area, more specifically. I already sent her some maple sugar candy and local postcards of the foliage this area of the US is known for as a fall present for her. Any ideas?

if they liked the maple candy, try sending other items native to the area, like maybe local spagetti sauces or bbq sauces or just something that represents american or local culture....what i would not recomened is anything World War 2 related.....definatly not....

I used to have lots of overseas penpals myself. I think it's a great idea that you want to send something specific to America and New England. I was actually at my Grandmother's last year and she had a catalog called "The Vermont Country Store". They have lots of New England type things, includging food, clothing, candy, etc. They have a web site which I've put on my reply. Maybe that will inspire you. Good luck to you!

What about something that is from YOUR area? That way it would be from America but more specifically from where YOU live. I think it would mean more to her that you sent something that represents you and your heritage. Even a nice scarf to ward off the cold would be nice,sort of a "hug" gesture from a friend to a friend.

ipod is large!!!! if she has one (get accessaries) cellular telephone is reliable too!!! upload a cellular telephone on your contemporary service (telephone$50 +$10.in line with month for service) and that way she'll be able to call you or you her each and every time(like, even as the ex isn't round) purely make sensible you provide her guidelines of her using it. Watch your bill purely to be secure. This little bit of freedom might want to point the international to her. different ideas: lowride denims, shoes, her widespread cd, present playing cards to her widespread save, perfumes, creams
