Fellow collector Andrea sent me her native Vienna and Austria mugs. It’s truly a great pleasure to have fellow collectors from around the world. Finding people to trade with and receiving these mugs in the mail are just as exciting as buying the mugs myself at their locations.

Fellow collector Eugenia sent me four mugs from her native Switzerland. Unfortunately, only two survived the trip: Geneva and Zurich.
Friends, I can’t stress enough how important it is to take great care in packing these mugs for shipment. Leaving their safety to chance is just not going to cut it. There’s nothing more heartbreaking than waiting eagerly for the mugs only to see them in shattered pieces upon arrival. *SIGH.

In 2005, I went to Guangzhou for a business trip. Unfortunately, I didn’t get my hands on a mug. I’m so happy that I finally have one!
