@Chili What a wonderful adventure! Thank you for putting together such a thoughtful journey through the English countryside!

I love the snacks you chose - wow!! And I especially love that you included sustenance for my traveling companions. 🐶❤️🐶 The Timtams are delicious! I had to sneak one in with my morning coffee 😄 I can‘t wait to try the Caribou coffee - in my Caribou coffee mug! ☕️ Thank you for my bookish goodies & tote for carrying ...

Being transported by a book to a different time and place is magical ❤️ Wouldn‘t it be awesome if you could capture that magic and share it with another Litten? You can!

@Chrissyreadit came up with the genius idea to swap books & surprises all centered around a time and place you would like to “travel” to. Fancy Jane Austen‘s England? Or Nemo‘s Submarine? Anywhere, anytime, & you don‘t even have to leave your couch! It is the ultimate staycation!

Gissy What type of books we share here? 6y

mabell @Chrissyreadit Thanks! I‘m just *slightly* excited 😆 🤣 6y

mabell @Karisa I agree! A really unique way to get creative and share goodies! 😄 6y

Chrissyreadit @Gissy it can be fairly imaginative- any time past or future and any place- imagine you were traveling as a character in your book- and feel immersed in the setting while you read the story. 6y

Chrissyreadit @mabell yay!!!! I‘m pretty excited too! I can‘t wait to see how people interpret and create this for their partners!!! 6y

Gissy Then I want to be in Paris again, visit Scotland, Iceland, Japan, Hawaii, Caribbean countries with wonderful beaches, places to run, to do some wild sports, I can keep going😂I will sign today, sold👍 6y

mabell @Gissy You could send fiction, nonfiction, whatever you think your swap partner would like. The difference in this case is the theme isn‘t fixed - it will depend on what time/place your swap partner chooses as their “destination”. Like Paris in the Belle Époque or the American West in the mid 1800s or even, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... ? 6y

mabell @Chrissyreadit Great explanation! And yes, opening day is going to be awesome! So glad you are going to do it too @Gissy ! ❤️ 6y

mabell @Gissy I can‘t wait to see what you chose! I love your options! My choice was pretty obvious considering my profile... 😆 It will be so fun to plan the adventure for my match, it will be like I‘m going on the adventure too! 😄 6y

Chrissyreadit @Gissy I‘m so glad you are going to join and I can‘t wait to see the time/place(s) you choose! @mabell I feel like the prep for my match will be so much fun too! I‘m really excited about this swap 🥰🥰🥰🥰 6y

What is your favorite book to travel with? #litsytraveler

wanderinglynn I don‘t have one novel I travel with, but I always take a journal/sketchbook. 6y

kaleidoscope.reader @wanderinglynn I do too. I like to snap a few photos but mostly write or sketch. I do take a travel guide with me. Seeing the hot spots are fun. Then I walk and find the hidden gems. 6y

Beatlefan129 I think it‘s a fun idea to match your book with the place you‘re going 6y

kaleidoscope.reader @Beatlefan129 That's a good idea.😊💜 6y

Here I am, heading downstairs with an armful of books at the beautiful Daunts bookstore in Marylebone in London.... I just love how they organize the travel books, non fiction and fiction that is set in each country, all together.... it makes for such a lovely browsing experience 💕📚

TrishB Enjoy 👍🏻 a lovely shop. 6y

KarenUK @TrishB I did.. thank you! Not quite sure how I‘m going to get my little haul into the small case I brought with me! It was already stuffed! 🤦‍♀️ 6y

LeeRHarry One of my faves 💕 6y

This is so fun @JoScho!
1. The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. Istanbul and Romania!
2. Prague
3. Istanbul - I still haven't been! Or maybe Russia?
4. Fly because it usually means overseas, but I do love a road trip
5. Gelato, duh
