I’m traveling to Korea and will be meeting my relatives (cousins, uncles/aunts, grandma) while I’m there, too. Apparently, I need to bring gifts.. lots of them.
What are some decent and smaller sized gift ideas? I got a regular size US domestic carry-on luggage (willing to upgrade to larger if necessary), and don’t really know much about my relatives’ hobbies, likes, and whatnot. Most of them, I’ve only seen once in the last 3 decades! I’ve googled quite a bit, and some common recommendations are coffee, alcohol, nuts/chocolate, vitamin supplements, etc., but these are all common in Korea now.
I’d love to bring unique roasted coffee beans from my local area since I’m into coffee and I know some of them are, too, but I would have to know about their coffee setup before buying whole vs roasted, etc. I’m wondering if I should just ask what they need since I’d have to ask anyway if I were to bring coffee. I did prepare some Trader Joe’s tote bags since they are cute and cheap just to add on top of main gifts.
What would you guys bring if you were in my shoes (or want if on my relatives’ side)? My budget is up to $100/family x 7.
