Away notice!

**

2025 is going to be a traveling year again, yay! I have a laptop but due to weight restrictions I can only take my iPad. Most hotels I stay at have crappy internet service so I can't always go on swapbot. So if it shows I haven't been here it's due to my inability to connect.

Favorite Television

Do it yourself shows, cooking shows. Documentaries that teach me something.

Favorite Books

I enjoy mysteries, true crime stories, biographies, travel stories and I read cook books as a hobby.

Things I really love

I love colors but don't like red or really pink things. I'm a big fan of Art Deco, Gargoyles, Buddha pictures, elephants, colors and patterns of all sorts. I love tulips and pretty flowers. I'm into washi tape.But please don't send me more! My favorite painters are almost all the Dutch Masters, I like Monet and Georgia O'Keefe as well.

Don't like.

I would REALLY prefer no cursive handwriting, I wasn't raised learning how to read it and I have hard time reading it. If it is however how you write then please write a litte bigger with spacing!

I don't like strong scents either in perfume or candles. Real lavender is always good. Due to dietary restrictions no food please. Not a fan of cartoon items, **please no stickers,no Hello Kitty things I don't care for beach/overly flowery or very pink stationary.**

Cities and places I love.

Favorite cities, Amsterdam-Lyon-Paris-Avignon-Mont Saint Michel-San Francisco- Seattle-Chicago.

About Me

Jack of all trades, very creative and active every day. I work part-time now and alsoI volunteer at an educational farm and as a reading tutor. I love dancing, just got certified as a Zumba instructor in 2018.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting, weaving and spinning my own wool. Coloring books is another thing I love, I have too many and not enough time to sit down and color.

Favorite Music

Anything Latin or Zumba. Or both.

Comment: Thank you very much for the "ugly" postcard. I agree it definitely doesn't show the Eiffel Tower at its best ;)

Comment: My Tot and I both love this image. I just want to roam down the path. That settles it, I have to buy tulips this year. Your memory of receiving a Valentine from your granddaughter was heartwarming. I hope to make similar memories someday.

Hi there! I just received the completed Art Collab dated 12/30/24, from you- I so wish our mail could talk so we would know what took almost two months for it to find its way home! LOL! Are you having any issues with your mail being delayed or taking longer than usual to get to you? I am so excited that the leaves (real ones) made it safely through the mail! LOL! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Thanks for adding to my Coloring Collab pc that was started in July. It made its way home!!

Hi Marjoleine! Thank you for sending the art collaboration in an envie as I agree, it would not have survived without it! Super cute but also super bulky! I will try to remember to send you a stamp next time we are partners! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Hi MarHelene, I got the Art Collab postcard you finished and sent in today's mail, it was a very happy surprise! Thank You for your work and returning it for me. 🐟🐠🐑

Thank you for returning my Coloring Collab Elephant postcard. I loved seeing everyone's contributions.

DeboraCreates on Mar 25, 2023:

Thank you for returning my full Art Collab PC #95. It came out great!

TexyDeb on Jan 28, 2023:

Sadly, you do not understand the idea behind the traveling postcards. Returning mine immediately to me makes me sad. It did not travel at all. Also, the first time you joined you sent and extra-large postcard which costs more to mail.
