light headed: What would be a nice gift to give a young 16 year old hispanic female who helps me translate from time to time?
Within the last year and a half she has translated for me numerous times, and I thought it would be nice to get her a gift. I want to get her a gift that is respectful to her as a young woman and that respects her and her families economical ways of living.
I dont want to go with “make up/perfume/gift card”
any ideas?

probably the same gift you’d get a 16 year old caucasian female?
– You could get her the spanish version of your favorite book. Or just your favorite book.
– Bake something! Get in the kitchen and show off some family recipes! I often give baklava and spanikopita as gifts. They take a lot of effort, but they’re always well received. If you don’t have any family recipes, then make up a basket with cookies. (or if you’re hopeless in the kitchen, go to a bakery and make a nice gift basket).
– She has to have some sort of interests beyond translating! Use those…
– Why not give her a little herb garden or some potted flowers? You could even make a nice planted arrangement for her.
– a little gift basket with face masks, foot lotions, body lotions, lip glosses and soaps.
I really think the candle thing is so overdone. Seriously, don’t buy candles and smelly things. I have so many different candles at my place from gifts. I can only light so many candles at one time! Plus, I have two cats, so I can’t even light a candle unless I’m right beside it supervising…
