I am Brit living in Japan, I have been here since '98. I have organised many swaps in the past through my blog, mostly Montessori related. I am also a craftaholic and love creating new things, I sell cute Japanese fabric and my own sewing patterns and kits through Etsy and my own website. I really enjoy swaps that my son can get involved with too, especially cultural items. He likes postcards of native animals and landmarks and we both like trying new sweets/candies/chocolate :o) We are lacking in things from Africa so any African swaps are welcome.

I am allergic to lavender so please don't include anything with lavender in it.

I love punk music, Green Day, Offsprng, Blink 182, The Enemy to name but a few.

Books - The Book Thief is a new fav. and anything about travel. As a kid I wanted to read every book in the world and travel to every country, I have refined that a bit and now I am trying to read a book about every country - far more realistic I think.

CSI, all of them, Numbers, Bones, House. We don't get much British drama here but I love watching anything British, makes me feel at home.

Where to start? Sewing, painting little wooden people, anything messy, drawing, I really like making toys for kids and have just got into making my own clothes. I love fancy buttons and ribbon.
