Pay it Forward Giveaway Hop

Are you ready to hear what you can win in the “International Delights” Giveaway?  Again, this contest has nothing to do with no relation to coffee creamer, just so we’re all on the same page 🙂

My contest is open to U.S. residents only, so I thought I would feature items that I had discovered while studying abroad (with the exception of the featured book, which I discovered while stateside, but it is written by a foreign author).  One of my favorite parts of travel is discover new books, music, and movies that I would never have heard of otherwise.  So, without further ado, here is the prize:

1 copy of Griffin and Sabine by Nick Bantock (a British writer and author who is based in British Columbia)

This beautiful book is a love story through letters.  The illustrations and unique format make this one a memorable read.

 

1 copy of the CD Between Waves by David Fonseca (the multi-talented Portuguese Pop Singer)

Image from: baudoscds.blogspot.com

This is his latest album (to my knowledge) and I happen to have two copies of it (I couldn’t part with my CD/DVD set!)  Although David is Portuguese and has sung in his native tongue in previous bands, his solo work is in English.  One of my favorite singers for sure!

 

1 copy of the DVD Talk to Her directed by Pedro Almodovar

Image from: imdb.com

My year abroad in Spain included many Almodovar films (I once heard him described as the Spanish Tarantino).  Odd movies, but they make you think for sure.  The movie is in Spanish, with English subtitles, if desired.

 

To enter, simply comment below and answer the following question:

If you could take a vacation to a foreign country, which country would you pick, and why?

(Only one entry per person, please!)

 

IMPORTANT:

Make sure to enter your email address in addition to your user name when you comment, so I will have a way to get in touch with you when you win.  The winner will also be posted on the blog on Sunday, July 1st!!!

Pay it Forward Giveaway info will be announced tomorrow!

Hi all,

Just a quick note to say I am still going to participate in the Pay it Forward Giveaway.  My giveaway will feature 3 international delights (not the coffee creamer):  one book, one movie, and one CD.  That’s all I’ll say for now, but I will announce the items tomorrow and let you know how you can sign up to win!

Be sure to check back tomorrow for more info and have a fantastic day 🙂
