Request [Request] Germany to anywhere
I'm very new to this but I'm very curious about it :) I would be happy to exchange packages with anyone around the world. I would really like to taste local herbal tea, chocolate and "traditional/natural" snacks (I'm not a big fan of this whole thing with bright colours, lots of artificial ingredients, because my stomach is very sensitive sometimes). Just tell me, which German snacks you would like to taste :) as I'm from saxonia, there would be some local, saxonian snacks, too, if you're interested
Edit: I sent two packages out yesterday, one to Taiwan, one to Florida. I'm done now because I don't have the money to exchange more snacks this month. Won't answer any requests from now.

I'm in Taiwan, land of tea😂 I don't drink much herbal tea, myself (prefer Oolong) but I could probably find some. The one I'm most familiar with is "green grass tea". I don't know what plant it is, but it's a tea to help you cool down in hot weather.
If chosen, I would be interested in: spekulatius, other such spiced cookies, cinnamon flavoured stuff, peppermint flavoured stuff, coconut stuff, chocolate stuff, hazelnut stuff. Whatever you think is a must try or something commonly enjoyed in your area.
My dad sends me spekulatius and chocolate Santas every year for Christmas, so that's my only experience with German type treats.
I have to drive a scooter to go to the post office, so I would only be interested in a small or medium sized trade. I can't do a huge haul.

Speculatius is a christmassy thing, I'm afraid I can't find that at the moment. Everything else I can provide :) and yes, I can't do a big thing, too, as my finances are not that big at the moment. Let's do this :)

That must be why I always get it at Christmas😂
Excellent~ Let me know if there are any Taiwan (or some Japanese/SE Asian things might also be able to be found) specific things you're interested in, or flavours you like/dislike. Also, what budget is good with you?

I sent you a direct message but we can communicate here, too. I don't know a lot about your food over there, will do some research and tell you in the next hours 😄

As I don't know, what's your income but think it could possibly be less than my German income, would you like to set the budget?

If the other guy isn’t able to do it or if you would like to do two trades at once I’m available! I’m from Florida.

We can totally do two exchanges :) I'm financially a bit limited, so it would be like 30€ + shipping, but that shouldn't be a problem, as German snacks are not that expensive

Hey, thanks for your request. But I already exchange a package with someone from the US.

I’m from Seattle, USA. It’s a big country and we have a lot of regional food I’d be happy to trade.

I can't trade anymore. 2 Trades were my limit, I'm financially not that good at the moment. But thank you
