Dear Santa,

You are amazing!! This is my first year matching international and I was not sure what to expect. Santa you truly went beyond my expectations, your gifts were thoughtful and mean so much to me. Now I want to visit New Zealand!! I was beyond excited when I saw I had a package waiting for me at the post office and over the moon when I realized it was from you!!

I brought it home and documented with photos so I could show everyone how thoughtful a complete stranger can be :)

I followed the instructions and opened all of my presents before the card. The first gift I opened was Marmite--in all honesty I had a flash back to the first time I tried it when visiting Wales ( I truly believe a love for this is developed in utero) and although my experience was Marmite is not I enjoyed, I was beaming as I quickly realized that my Santa gifted me with items from their county!!!! YAHOO

The next gift I opened was the chocolate bar...oh my goodness..I turned into a child and took a bite right there. It was (yes sadly past tense) delicious!! The best chocolate EVER!!

I had one more gift to open and when I opened I was speechless that a complete stranger could be so generous. I held in my hand the most unique and lovely necklace I had ever seen, but I did not know it meaning. I also noted two beautiful photo, actual photos that my Santa took! So I followed the next step and opened the card!

The card explained it all!! My Santa did take those photos and I LOVE them. They are snapshots in the beautiful country of NZ!! Then the card explained that the necklace was a Pounamu and usually passed down in generations or given as a gift and the suggested it was worth a google search...so I googled it and learned all about the beautiful Pounamu. Here is a link I found if anyone is interested in learning more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pounamu

Santa I am so touched and I love all of these beautiful gifts. I hope you and your family have a lovely holiday!!
