Cara had to say...

Hello!

I am a 29-year-old proud miitary spouse and a mother of a rambunctious 2-year-old.  I work ridiculous hours and am always found during downtime (and when my son finally goes to sleep!) reading everything I can get my hands on, bicycling around our host country with my family or playing softball.

Where we are at, we have an American bookstore, but selection is not as extensive of course as it is in the states.  I read probably 2 paperbacks a week, and I try to order books when I can.

Please note that if you order from me, I send items First Class (single book) or Priority (BOB) because the Post is slower on this end.  This is not a requirement to mail to me; for some reason it works faster from the states to here, so please don't worry about the extra shipment time.  However, you do need to physically go to the Post Office and fill out a customs form, even though I have an APO address, which is considered an American address.

I really appreciate the support we've been shown on this Swap site.  I want everyone to know that even the littlest thing, like wearing a ribbon, buying a Soldier's coffee or the extra effort it takes to send books here is recognized as support for the Soldiers and their families.  It is never forgotten.

Thanks again for visiting!!!
