Strawberry20

I am a retired educator that loves crafting and reading. I've never swapped before but look forward to this new adventure. Right now I am interested in paper crafting (making journals, ATC cards, pocket letters). I also like drawing. I have done a lot of cross stitch in the past. I am an avid reader with a specific interest in historical fiction, mysteries, legal thrillers, and Christian fiction and nonfiction. I have always wanted to travel abroad and would love to have a pen pal from another country, but would also be interested in writing to someone from the US. I love strawberries and collect anything with a strawberry on it- paper, stickers, dishes, figures, fabric, photos, art. Anything! I am an animal lover! I love dogs! I am a pianist and organist. I enjoy playing Christian music. I am a Christian and my relationship with Christ is the most important thing in my life.

The Bible.,Books by John Grisham, Bosch series by Michael Connelly, Victoria Thompson Gaslight series, Anne Perry's Monk series, Sue Grafton's Kinsey Milhone series, books by Francine Rivers.

I love Christian music, especially choral music and piano and organ solos.

I like classic rock (especially from the 60's and 70's) too.

I also like the songs from musicals .
