Please make sure my last name (not my username) is clear on the envelope above my address. In Dec 2026 it will be my 20th anniversary on Swap-Bot!

I’m a British/Australian living in Berlin, Germany and I'm in my mid-40s. I read a lot, mainly fiction but also some informative books on a wide range of themes. With books, I like to have one German book and one English book on the go. I like cutting pictures out of magazines and sticking them in books to make new journaling pages. I used to enjoy playing bingo with my late grandmother, I have a nostalgia for it now, but nowhere seems to host it. I love flowers, household plants and learning about their benefits. One day I will have my very own garden and I'm looking forward to that day :) I enjoy traveling and look forward to exploring Europe more.

I am quite happy with my own company and never seem to run out of things to do.

I am not religious, but I do not mind if you are.

I love cat related things - especially black cats. I also love robins, starlings and small blackbirds. Ferns, pheasants, flowers, trees, nature, dried/pressed flowers. I'm always pleased to receive memo papers, stickers (adult), alphabet, puffy stickers, notecards, stationery papers, washi tapes, unused postcards that are not of a city. Virgo, carebears (80s style) and Moomins related things are welcome :)

Please don't feel you have to send me anything if the swap does not call for it.

I would love to receive anything with the common blackbird and robins on it. Also anything with hares or bees.

Favourite Season: all - They all have their good points. Favourite Colours: all, but I think I am drawn more to brighter colours.

I'd love to get pictures of swimming pools especially pools from above, I think they're fascinating.

I like to try many crafts, I like to knit, crochet, sew, cross-stitch, black work stitching, napkin decoupaging.

I love sewing and after years and years I am still a beginner :) I don't do it as often as I'd like to.

I enjoy my junk journaling and making collages. I'd love to get letter stickers! But not number stickers.

Interesting magazine/newspaper cut outs, dicuts, things I can use in a junk journal. Anything cat related, carebears related, floral, nature, pretty.

The Planters film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfGvYLf99fg - A cute, strange, weird film.

Indie films! Suggest some from your country please! I generally will not watch Hollywood films, including Disney. I can no longer tolerate violence or sex-scenes. I do not see how it really enhances a film. Subtle and not in-your-face is always better. TruthStreamMedia on YouTube is always a favourite.

If the swap does not require extras, you do not have to send any! Otherwise, I am happy to receive any notecards, notepapers/memopapers, letter sets! I am quite open minded and am happy to read your happy moments as well as your not so happy.

I would not like to receive food items including teas. I prefer not to receive disney, hollywood, religious, manga, unicorn items. I am not particularly interested in blank country postcards as I don't know how to use cards from another city. I do love the "Greetings from" series though! And please NOTHING even slightly perfumed, as I get headaches from perfume.

Thank you! :)
