Unique Gourd
Hey Yerba Mate drinkers?
Does anyone that drinks yerba mate using a gourd and bombilla actually carry it around with you, say to work, ready with hot water to drink throughout the day? If so, what are the reactions of others? People at work already know me to be a bit..unique…but I’ll be having to explain this one. 
Just go for it…people will ask then probably, but most people aren’t that interested from my experience. I am a 25 year old American living in Argentina right now, but when I was in college I tried introducing Mate to my friends but no one wanted to try it. I love the idea of Mate..but most of my friends would rather just get drunk for their social interactions.
