***IMPORTANT: The place where I live do have a postal box where I can send the outgoing mail, but that mail is not picked everyday. Please be comprehensive, I always mail before the mail deadline, but it happens very often that there is a difference of 1, 2 or 3 days between the postmark and what I said on this site. Thanks for your comprehension. ***

Hello! I'm Juliette, a student in journalism, a book lover, a fan of travels, an eternel dreamer... I love cooking, crafting, being in the nature. I speak fluently French and English and I'm currently learning Spanish. I'm really into penpalling and I'm also a postcrossing member. I always send colourful letters, because they bring happiness in the postal boxes! I like everything that is colourful and also everything related to travels, because traveling is my biggest dream! I want to learn more about foreign cultures, traditions and languages.

I love reading all kind of books, except science fiction. I love traveling books, they always make me dream and want to take the first plane, haha! I also enjoy historical novels, because I learn a lot with them. Michel David is one of my favorite author. I recently read The Book of Negroes, by Lawrence Hill, and it was very good! It's a sad story, it's about slavery, but it's very good, I loved it! Finally, I also really like cookbooks.

Crafting is one of my favorite hobby! I love scrapbooking, doodling, zentangle, sewing... My favorite colours are lime green and aqua. Mix together, these two colours are awesome! I always use them, I have to stop myself sometimes, haha! PLEASE DON'T SEND ME SCRAPBOOK STUFF! I already have a lot (maybe too much haha!).

I love cooking, especially recipes from all around the world. Trying new recipes is so exciting! I'm not very picky, but there is a few things I don't like:

• Artificial banana flavor

• Custard

• Peppers

I really like:

• Curry

• Spices

• Fruits

• A lot more!

• Postcards from your country, written and stamped if possible (if you send a package, please write the postcard with my address and add a low value stamp so it will be like if it was written and stamped!)

• Typical sweets and especially spices from where you live, which are not common if possible.

• Bus or subway ticket

• MAGNETS!!! See below please :)

• Handwritten letters

• Recipes from all around the world, which you have tried and like!

• Stamps showing local people

• Metal bookmarks (I love metal bookmarks!)

• Traditional art from your country ( jewelry, for example. I love earrings and bracelets!)

• Traditional items from where you live, related to your culture (festival masks, for example). It would be awesome if you could add an explanation!

• Small boxes decorated with typical art from your country. It's definitely what I would prefer to receive!!!

• In brief, anything related to your culture, i'm so curious about foreign languages and cultures!

• International brands
• Anything related to movies.
• Anything related to Disney
• No makeup, body lotions, sunscreen or pharmacy stuff, I HATE receiving that kind of stuff which I can buy by myself!
• No scrapbooking/crafting supplies, I already have a lot
• Flat mail when you're supposed to send a package, it's disappointing.

I love collecting magnets from all over the world, but ONLY TOURIST MAGNETS. Please no handmade or AD magnets. I love them because I can see where you live or the attractions of your country! Please, no flag magnet unless they are shaped with the form of your country. And I'm not a huge fan of royalty families. I prefer the magnets that shows a touristic attraction, architecture, a local population or a traditional art from your country.
