Exchange Boxes – packing

Time for presents!

In December we sent Exchange Boxes to our project countries. They contained:  

1.    Homemade Polish biscuits

2.    Polish coins

3.    Christmas card from Poland

4.    Wafre
(which we share with family and friends at Christmas-while wishing one another all the best we break off a piece of wafre from our friends' wafres and they do the same)

5.    Christmas tree decorations

6.    Traditional Polish sweets ("Krowki", which means "Little cows" ;-))

7.    Salt from the oldest salt mine in Poland, Wieliczka (Cracow)

8.    Handmade fruit jam

9.    Ginger biscuits

10. Film: guided tour of Poland

11.  Photos of the best places in Poland

12. ‘Solidarność’ badge (eng. Solidarity - the first non-communist party-controlled trade union in a Warsaw Pact country)

13. a model of “Maluch”  (“The Little One”) – Fiat 126p – the most popular car in Poland in 1980s (produced in Bielsko-Biała, Poland)

Here are some photos from the great packing ;-))

Klaudia and Karolina and their box...

"Each work needs to be supervised," thought Bartek ;-)

Marcin was doing his best to prepare the boxes

So were Pawel and Krzysiek (though boys and ribbons might be a tricky combination ;-)))
