What would be a good gift for a host family I%26#039;ll be staying with in Ukraine?
I%26#039;m flying over to Ukraine to run a kids camp and I%26#039;ll be staying with a host family for a week. What are your ideas for a cool, inexpensive, uniquely American gift to bring for them?
Best Answer
Get something that shows where youre from - not the USA in general - but your area. I always gave host families post cards from my state, I found a neat etched crystal block with a state flower, anything that would remind someone of you, and where youre from!

$ that has $100 US in value.
Money is always a great gift.
I was in Germany last year and gave my host family Heinz ketchup. They LOVED it because it%26#039;s their favorite and is extremely expensive over there. They would probably never buy it on their own. It%26#039;s like someone giving you a $100 bottle of wine.
baseball caps, T-shirts with cool logos, some typically American food like peanut butter, maybe scotch or whiskey (don%26#039;t buy expensive one!).
Yes, they have all this in Ukraine at almost every store (except for peanut butter, maybe) but it%26#039;s your attention that matters.
Toilet paper
i dunno, just take the family out to dinner or something of that nature, mayube get them a USA rocks t-shirt
