What is on my list of researching at some point in the near future is a to go cup from the EU. I have been using a keepcup for ages and while it still does it’s job it’s made from plastic and I have been a lot more sceptical of heating food / putting warm beverages in plastic containers. It might be very easy to find a glass or metal cup but maybe it wont be. I would use it for drinking coffee mainly, i already have a metal bottle for water but because that system is easier to get right it didn’t require any research.

Many years ago, I wanted to buy a fountain pen. I found lots of pen stores in USA, but since shipping and tariffs have been outrageous as long as I can remember, those stores were completely out of the question. Around that time, UK was still in the EU, so I ended up ordering my pen from one of those pen stores.

A few years later, brexit happened, but I still wanted another fountain pen, so I ended up browsing some EU stores instead. Having an updated list would be nice though.

Currently, my pen collection is as large as I need it to be, so buying more isn’t on the top of my mind. However, other fountain pen enthusiasts might benefit from an EU based fountain pen store list.
