What gift to give to a German friend?
A set of Chinese tea set and tea leaves!!
Guarantee that they like it very much and it is very decent.
My husband is German-American. We visit relatives every year, and his relatives and friends ask us to bring them Chinese tea.
I gave a set of Chinese tea set to my brother-in-law. His wife loves it so much that she is never willing to use it, and people show it off when they come. In fact, the tea set is only more than 200 yuan. Summarizing several years of experience in visiting relatives and giving gifts, Chinese tea and tea sets are always the most popular, and they think they are quite expensive gifts.
For him and his brother, you can buy craft knives, the kind of Japanese knives that can be placed on the shelf, they like it very much, and they can be shipped with luggage.
In addition, it is good to buy pearl necklaces or silk pajamas for his mother.
These two things are very expensive abroad.
If it’s just him giving you a gift, and his family doesn’t give you a gift, it is recommended that you don’t give gifts to his family.
Because Westerners are very cautious about giving gifts.
If you don’t meet his family and give gifts, others will think you have a purpose.
However, if you are invited to their house as a guest, it’s another matter.
If you give it to him personally, given his age, you will give a craft knife, and Chinese men’s clothing (not silk fabrics), he will like it very much. Tell him that this is a Bruce Lee-style kung fu suit.
