I'm going to be a foreign exchange student leaving the U.S., what are some good gifts to being to my host fam?

Question

i was wondering what are good gifts to bring from the U.S. to south america?

for any of you guys from south america, what do u like from the U.S.?

and for any foreign exchange students/ X foreign exchange students, what did you bring (gift wise)?

Answer 1

The gifts I liked to give out were T-Shirts from my hometown here in the US.  I am from the Dayton/Cincinnati area, and gave out Reds and Bengals shirts, University of Dayton, University of Cincinnati, and Miami University t-shirts, etc.  People loved them.  For them, its unique and stands out, and it gives them something to remember you by when you leave.  Plus- they are easy and light to pack, which is always a key consideration when you are packing bags with a years worth of stuff.

Answer 2

A HAMBURGER! No. My friend went to china last year and her host family really liked her flip flops.

Answer 3

Bring stuff that people from South America can absolutely not get there! IDK maybe a keychain or something that represents America well? Or maybe clothing items or food you can't get there...be creative =D!! Hope that helped lol
