I changed my next trip from Nicaragua to Mexico. My daughter has Leukemia so I need to able to come back quickly. Mexico City has multiple direct flights from Chicago while there are no direct flight from Chicago to Nicaragua and they are less frequent. I plan on heading out to the Patzcuaro area a few hours outside of Mexico City where there are a number of indigenous craftspeople that I am going to work with. I am leaving in April and I am extremely excited to be going. There are coppersmiths, reed weavers, textile weavers and pottery makers. I hope to be able to purchase a good number of items for the World Neighbor Store.
I also have some new items that just arrived from Egypt as well as some other items coming from Greece. I will be placing those up in the store over the next few weeks. I am happy that our inventory is expanding to different corners of the world. I am in contact with a number of Vietnamese vendors that I hope to set up a relationship with over the next year or so.
