Important note: I will be away on vacation, and I'll be back on August 10th. I will be able to access SwapBot ocasionally, but wont be able to rate the swaps received while I'm away from home (do not worry, my swap partners, 'cause I'll have my parents checking my mail and keeping all my swap packages safe until I'm back). I'll miss Swap-bot and all of you my friends!

I love to give, and I always prepare a package that I would love to receive - with nice things and extras, related to the person's profile (I always read it and take notes).
I am a serious swapper! I always rate and I always send my packages! If you are my partner to receive and think the package is taking too long to get to you (meaning it got lost between countries) please let me know! Just PM or email me before rating. I'll send you another one if I have to.
Please note: I usually mark "Sent" when I have the package all ready to go, but it may take a few days until I actually manage to go to the PO. This helps me to get organized with my swaps.

Olá!!! Adorei a tua ideia de fazer um grupo só para portugueses. =) Era óptimo organizarmos trocas nacionais ^^ Também não sei onde se encontram coisas kawaii em Portugal acho que ainda não temos grandes lojas nessas area. Bjinhos`****
Please stop by the Christian Swappers group and check out our new swap, "Lamb of God". I hope you'll consider joining!:) Obrigada!
Hi sweets! So glad you're in the critter swap! ~Artsyfartsy
I love the My Melody keychain for the kawaii PIF. Thank you!
I will be sending out your magazine swap package today. I hope you enjoy what I picked out :)
Hi Sara! I just wanted to let you know that there are two new Feltbots swaps, the first two in the Christmas Ornaments series that'll be running every month until Christmas. The first themes are birds and trees. Please take a look and join if you're interested.
Your Local Dotee is going in the mail tonight. I am so sorry it is late. My daughter has been in the hospital and I just haven't been able to concentrate on getting this put together. I hope you enjoy your package and get a sense of the beautiful place I live. Again, thanks for your understanding. Gyelle
Thank you so much for the great package. I love the prizes inside of the HK Kinder Eggs, and now have a new thing to start collecting. :)
E me diga se gostaria de fazer um troca particular comigo e quando, ok!;)
