Italy and Singapore Swap

Swap Details:

Swapper2: Sammie Singapore, Asia
Swap completed: August/September 2007

Italy sends to Singapore


I am no longer a swap virgin! Fede was an awesome person to start my swaps with! She'’s from Palermo, Italy and we exchanged plenty of emails before we settled what we would be sending to each other. We agreed to do a semi-surprise swap so we promised to send a couple of ‘standard’ items and leave the rest up to our imaginations! Fede sent me an awesome top that I love and am waiting for the perfect time to wear it! I got a moka that’s an expresso machine and I’ve already tried it (interesting experience yall! If you’'re ever gonna do a swap with someone from Italy you should ask them to get you a moka!) She also sent me a couple of postcards, 3 pairs of
earrings, a bangle, newspaper, a notepaper set (complete with a cute eraser and a pencil!) and a notebook! We will also agreed to do a couple of follow-up swaps where we will send each other a couple of things ever few months or so and I really can’t wait! So yes, thank you fede! I'’m really glad I got to meet you through GYS. I will neverever forget you! And one day maybe we will meet for real ( : love ya babe!
Sammie

Not again...

Hey all, really sorry about the lack of upkeep at Gimme recently :(
We had three people offer to help out but none of them are replying to emails anymore and they seem to now be unable to help. If anyone else would like to raise their hand, all you need is a little simple HTML knowledge and a desire to be involved!

For those who have send us their joining details, please rest assured that we still have them and will get you properly joined when we have the people to do it.

Please email us if you're interested in helping Gimme to continue.
Cheers :)
