About Me
22/02/213 -Once again or postal service inSouth Africa is striking!!! This is seriously getting ridicolous! All the swaps have been given in at the counter inside the post office and I have asked them to handstamp the date on the envelopes/postcards. Whether they will actually do it, is another question.
My name is Marie-Antoinette (yip like Queen Marie-Antoinette of the French Revolution. I still have my head attached to the rest of me.)
I'm 37 and live in South Africa in a town Brakpan in the Gauteng Province. I enjoy meeting new penpals from all over the world. I enjoy writing to my Circle of World Wide Friends (penpals). I'm a Christian. I enjoy spending time with my family. My only kids are my twin furbaby boys they are fox terriers called Murdock and Snoopy.
Favorite Crafts
I enjoy doing scrapbooking, beading, crocheting, knitting, baking, cooking, postcrossing, writing (stories, petry and letters), listening to music, playing hidden object or mystery computer games, photography and playing with my dogs.
Two blankets I crochet.
Collect
I collect postcards, bookmarks, stationery, memo paper, note cards, butterflies, dolphins, angels, fairies, books, LPs, CDs, nice pictures or photos, pens, pencils, candles, books, serviettes, fridge magnets and keyrings.
Favorite Music
I enjoy music that won't burst my eardrums. I'm not into rap or jazz.I enjoy classical, instrumental (panflute, flute, saxophone, guitar, piano), 60s, 70s, 80s. I listen to a wide variety of music.
Favorite Books
I love reading. My favorite authors include Karen Kingsbury, Francine Rivers, Jodi Picoult, JK Rowling, Stephanie Meyer, CS Lewis, Dan Brown, Dee Henderson, Clive Cussler, Danielle Steel, Stephen King. Like music, I also read a wide variety of books.
Favorite Television
Muder mysteries, Investigation discovery, CSI - all of them, NCIS, Bones, Nature, Medical Mysteries, Law & Order (All of them).
Postcards...
I like receiving any type of postcard as long as it isn't anything discusting and rude. I don't mind if the postcard are sent in an envelope or stamped and written on - whatever the swap requires.
About swaps
I always send my swaps out. If you haven't received my swap to you, please let me know before rating me. I alwys go out of my way to make sure that my swaps are sent out in time - if for any reason I cannot sent it out in time, I will let you know - but I WILL send the swap requirements.

Thank you for the wonderful holiday cards! It was so fun to open your envelope from South Africa. Snail mail makes the season bright.
Swap-bot is lucky to have members like you. Happy holidays and happy swapping!!
A biiig thank you for the lovely surprise! I wasn't expecting to receive anything from you. I promise to keep you in my mind and perhaps one day, when you least expect, you'll find something from me :)
Hi there fellow South African Nice to meet you. Don't think there are many of us pen palling - wonder if it is also our Postal Service. First the transport strikes and now the "go slow".
Would love to know where you find your stationery and goodies from? xox
