I spent quite a
bit of time discussing what gifts
I should carry for my host families,
vocational hosts, and Rotary GSE sponsors.
I offer the following as greatest
hits:
As I arrived to each host first of
all given our Team Brochure, so they
know about you. Then I showed them
my Scrap Book, this was the best tool
to tell about yourself & your
family, culture etc. |

It is suggested
that as Team Leader one should carry
Gift for GSE Chair & All Area
co-ordinators also.
Note:
Rather than wrapping presents before
you go, I suggest taking gift bags
and decorative wrapping paper to wrap
things once you are there. The bags
and tissue paper pack very easily
and allow you to customize your gift
selections for each family. |
