This year I got one of the most thoughtful presents I've ever received. She's literally from the other side of the world, and by that I mean the package traveled at least 15.000 Kms (9,500 mi) from The Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia to Santiago, Chile.

Government branches are not very well managed here, that means they are really lazy, but that didn't stop the gift from arriving to my hands! It took it almost 2 months! I was dying from the expectation! (Sorry for the late post >_< I was on vacation when the package hit my home).

As soon as I opened the plastic bag, which I did carefully because I think it's a cool one, I realized I was in front of something special! I started with the beautifully handwritten letter, where Lili and Archik explained in detail the content of the package.

I got chocolates, cookies, candies and honey!!! I love it! They are really great, the designs of the wrappers are amazing, there's one with a face of a baby printed on the front that's kind of creepy but I love the design, I've kept all the wrappers so far.

But that's not all! She also sent me a Salavat Yulaev shirt, and it's the perfect size! The fabric feels great! I'm now a Russian Hockey fan.

I also got maps from the Republic of Bashkortostan, it will take me a while to get to use them since they are in Russian, so far it's been fun to try understanding them.

The gift also contained a badge, key-chain, pen, writing pad and Christmas cards! which I loved.

Lili thank you very much for this awesome gift and great experience, I was literally blown away by your gift, receiving it was like being a 10 year old kid on Christmas again. You are incredible person and I was lucky to have you as my Secret Santa. Please send my regards to Archik!
