I'm from Baltimore Maryland, or as I always call it Bodymore Murderland! Just kidding it's not that bad.
Also I may be crazy, but I think I remember a map of the Sprite Stitch users that did the last swap. It was all over the place!

I'm from Tucson, AZ - where I work has a big office in the UK, I am trying to talk my boss into sending me over there for a few weeks... I'm sure they need a Business Analyst for something, right? Really, I just want to pick up Mini Hama beads - I'm horribly jealous that you can get them over there with no ridiculous shipping costs....
Which made me think... it would be great if we could set something up for any members that are traveling internationally and willing to pick-up / drop off supplies. So, if any of you UK people were coming to the states, I could order some beads to be delivered to you in the UK, and then when you got here, you could drop them in the US post to my address - with me of course paying for shipping and the actual beads. (I'll make you something pretty, or pay you, or something...) Same thing the other way - if you guys wanted something from the states and I or someone else was traveling over there, you could have them sent here in country - and then when we got over there, send them through the regular post.
Do we have anyone who travels on a regular basis? Maybe we could set up an area - or just some topics in the Trade / Swaps area? Might be a way to save on costs if there are already members flying back and forth all the time...
