About Me

I am brandnew to swap-bot and am already looking forward to my first swaps! :)

I consider myself as a rather creative person and just finished my BA design studies. I will start a Master programme in Sweden this summer and am already looking forward! I spent about one year in Denmark before and totally fell in love with Scandinavia and especially Copenhagen.

I am collecting written & stamped postcards and have participated in postcrossing for nearly 5 years. Postcards are my passion! I can hardly resist nice postcards in stores.

I'm also very much into writing letters. My first and best penfriend and I are writting letters for 16 years now.

Now I'd like to swap other items as well because I love to surprise people with nice mail and of course I love to receive nice mail, too. ;)

Favorite Crafts

I recently started making pocket letters after I quit scrapbooking and I love it! It's so much fun to make a PL for someone else! I love die-cuts very much, washi-tape samples and selfmade things like these little mason jar shakers (I never got one).

Moreover I love sketching, crocheting and knitting. Right now I am working on baby-items (mostly crocheted) for my cousin's baby that will arrive in autumn. :)

Favourite Postcards

I especially collect postcards on the topics * maps * illustrations (especially Turnowsky, Inga Paltser, Ole West, "blue cats" but also others) * Tausendschön-postcards * Moomins * lali * Minions * anything with glitter :D * cards related to post (e.g. mailboxes, illustrations on that topic) * postallove Greetings-from-cards from its country of origin (I have Japan, Switzerland, Netherlands, Germany and Taiwan so far) * the sea/ocean/beach * koala bears, kangaroos and seagulls * food, drinks, chocolate * city-views

what I don't like so much... * handmade cards * ad-cards

I like...

...travelling, photography, reading, sometimes sports :D, crafts, minions!!, knitting, crocheting, sewing, discover nature, chocolate, tea (especially black & herbal, I don't like green tea), laughing, fresh fruits and smoothies during summer, cute animals, racoons, cats

and of course my friends, family and boyfriend :).

I dislike...

...magnets (except for book mark magnets, I love them!), folded cards, spiders, green tea

Favorite Books

novels that are not scary :D and that give me a matter for reflection

English: * Lisa O'Donnell: The Death of Bees (currently reading) * Lori Nelson Spielman: The Life List * Suzanne Collins: The Hunger Games Triology * J.K.Rowling: Harry Potter * Jonathan Safran Foer: Extremely loud and incredible close * Malala Yousafzai: I am Malala

German: * Patricia Koelle: Das Meer in deinem Namen
* Hanni Münzer: Honigtot

Other favourite authors who's book-list would be too long to mention here :D :
* Cecilia Ahern * Sarah Dessen * Jojo Moyes * Marita Conlon McKenna

I'm always interested in book tipps if you feel like I could like the novel! :) I am not so much into crime-, history- and scary novels though.

I have never received the Orange Pocket Letter Swap from you. I also see you have not logged in here since 8/22/15. Is there a problem? Will I be receiving my pocket letter? Let me know ok?
