As part of the intiative with the people of North lombok we were commissioning coconut bowl to sell online and be distributed here in Europe.
The coconut bowls were brought of the village people of Anyar last month and shipped over the where I live in Spain....
But sad news the coconut bowls are stuck in customs processing for over a month, the package may get sent back or just lost forever. I have experienced first hand many times how terrible Correos the Spanish postal service can be, I don't know why I thought for this package it would be different. I have filed a complaint but alas I doubt it will amount to much. Next time I'll try and get the shipped to some friends in the UK where I know the package will actually arrive.

Ah yes, the joy of sending parcels!
A friend of mine once sent some aryuvedic medicine for her asthma from India to Germany.
This medicine really helped her, better than Western medicine.
But German customs would not release the parcel to her, despite all her pleading with them and telling them that she needed it for her asthma.
This ayurvedic medicine was not approved in Germany as medicine, according to German law, so it was sent back to India by customs.

It's quite upsetting, some countries are quite strict. Like I saw an Indian guy trying to get his medicines into Australia but they wouldn't allow that either 😭
