About Me

Hi everyone! This is Dalila, a 33 year old girl from Italy, who now lives in Australia. I'm a wine and hospitality professional who is trying to kickstart a new career in IT. I love travelling and I have spent over 5 years living out of my backpack and travelling around the world. I love meeting new people, getting to know new cultures.. That's why I've been penpalling since I was 14 :) Some of the best friends I have.. I never met them, LOL. Now that I finally have a stable address again, I want to get back into penpalling - I adore seeing my mailbox full with letters and postcards, it makes me feel thought of and special :)

NOTE: I take my swaps very seriously and I always try my best to send in time. Should an issue occur, I will PM you and let you know promptly. I WILL NOT FLAKE! Also, I rate as soon as I get my swaps, so if you haven't been rated yet, it's just that I haven't received it. Please be kind enough to rate me promptly, too!

Favorite Music

I've always been into rock, but with age came a taste for ballads and acoustic music. I love going to concerts and listening to music while writing letters :)

Obsessed w/ Stationery!

Yes, I am truly obsessed with stationery. I would never stop buying notebooks, pens, paper clips, post-its.. So of course I am interested in Stationery Swaps, to get something that I would never find in my Country!

Crafting

I've been painting with acrylics and watercolours for a few years now and I like it so much. I also love creating my own stationery, my own envelopes.. and I think I would be a great scrapbooker, but I never really gave it a try. I am also into Zentangles and homemade bookmarks :)

Collections

I collect:

Postcards - Colorful landscapes - Nature and trees - Funny animals - Lakes/Rivers - Country fields and flowers - Canyons/ Impressive sceneries - Abstract colorful pictures

Fridge magnets: - Colorful 3D magnets - No glitters please - No flat magnets

Stationery: - Colorful lettersets - Washi tape - Envies (neatly homemade is fine!) - Rubber stamps - Gelpens, glitter pens, micron pens, advertising pens.. ANY KIND OF PENS! :)

If your local grocery store or bookstore or whateverstore is giving away some ad pens... I'd love to have them! :D

Jewelry: - Colorful handmade jewelry - Earrings (pierced - no clips!) - Bracelets - Necklaces - Anklets - Pearls - Silver (no Gold please) - No glitters

PLEASE SEND SOMETHING YOU'D BE HAPPY TO RECEIVE!!

Readings

I love biographies, history books, anthropology, culture and science related books.. And cookbooks!! I love cooking :)

At the movies..

My favorite director is Stanley Kubrik. I love thought-provoking movies! I try and watch all Oscar-winning movies every year. To list some of my faves: The Matrix, Fight Club, The Fifth Element, A Clockwork Orange, also like the New Hollywood movies ('60s-70's) and Hollywood Classics ('40s)..

Wishlist

Stationery (pens, gelpens, notepads, sheets, envelopes, stickers.. if it's stationery, I will surely like it!)

Funny socks!

Bath&Body stuff (Lotions, samples, conditioners, body wash, bath salts..)

Make-up stuff (eye shadows, blush, mascara, pencils, eyeliners..)

Stuffed Animals

Teas (anything but cinnamon or honey!! - I especially love Black and Roiboos tea)

Jewelry (Bracelets, Earrings, Anklets, Necklaces..)

****PRIVATE SWAPS ARE VERY WELCOME!!!!!****

Dislikes

There aren't many things that I do not like, but if I had to write a list, it would surely include: - Honey - Cinnamon - Overly girly stuff (pink feathers, glitters etc.. - except for gelpens! Glitter gelpens are very welcome) - Typed Letters (!) - Fantasy movies & books (i.e. LotR..) - Techno music - Religious stuff (I respect your religion, but it's not mine)

Comment: We you learn how to scuba dive, we could go together. I have lots of experience. It's very relaxing in the water, it's like watching TV, but you are burning calories! Wish you the best.
