My beautifully wrapped package was delivered a few days ago and I finally got home today to open it! My SS is from Germany and ran with the fact that I love studying culture and travelling the world. I have never been to Germany so this is very exciting! Not only is there a personal note telling me about history, but there is also a detailed letter to help explain the meaning of each item... so thoughtful. :) My SS did such a fantastic job. This was my first gift exchange and it was awesome. Thank you so much SS and have a happy new year! If I am lucky enough to visit Germany, I know where I am going first!
