Hi, Erica!
I wonder if there would be a way to match up people traveling abroad with calligraphers in foreign countries who would like to order supplies to be delivered when the traveler goes to their country? Most calligraphy supplies are pretty small & wouldn't be much of a burden to pack. I know that I would be happy to do that!
An extremely thoughtful suggestion Janis.
But please don't say you are travelling to India
You will be packing your entire baggage allowance with calligraphy materials.
It's been just 3 months since I got into calligraphy, and all my friends and some family in the US. have started dreading my emails already.
