My childhood best friend lives in Vienna Austria and will be getting married next month. As much as I want to be at the wedding to help her celebrate such a wonderful event, these outrageous airfares are preventing me from doing so. However, I will at least be sending her a gift. The problem is...what do I get for her? I can't send her money because the US dollar is doing so poorly the exchange rate won't get her very much. And knowing from past experiences that international mail handling leaves MUCH to be desired, I'm afraid to send her a crystal picture frame, for example, since it will probably arrive in pieces. Any ideas?
Thanks for the suggestions! My mom and I ended up getting them a bunch of things for their house - napkins, placemats, throw pillows, pictures, etc. It cost a fortune to send it all over there, but she loved it all!
I think amazon has an international gift registry department. you might want to check that. What about a gift certificate to an airline so that she could come and visit. Just a thought.
how about a brunch cookbook and a jug of maple syrup. that's all american!
Could you do a gift certificate?
Do you know of any stores in her area that she likes? I'm sure you could call and have something sent to her house.
Does she have a registry in Austria? Not sure if they do that sort of thing, but if she does that would be shipped locally to her.
Good Luck.
