I wanted to comment on this as I am a Secret Pal. I got involved because I wanted to have contact with a lacemaker in another country. I am so interested in the different countries and learning more about them. Money and type of gift means nothing to me, I enjoy anything from my secret pal. I often get postcards and prickings of the styles and countryside of my Secret Pal's country and love receiving them. I love hearing about her country and her life. So I guess what I am saying is that the expense of the gift is not important - it is the thought behind it. I don't have much money myself, so I try to pick out things that might say a little something about my country and who I am. They aren't expensive, however, I think my secret pal likes them, as she always says so in her thank you notes. :-) So don't let cost stop you from being a Secret Pal. Let yourself expand your world and talk to someone new. Regards, Rita Lloyd in Northern California, USA
