About Me

hello

I am a 28 year old woman from Austria/Europe. I love to be creative and I have been addicted to swapping since I was a teenager. I used to swap FBs and decos when I was younger, but some years ago my interests changed and at the moment I am mainly interested in taking part in themed swaps of store bought stuff. I love to swap different things- like for example tea, sweets, cute stuff, beauty products, seasonal stuff, regional stuff and many more.

Recently I also discovered my interest in journal swapping.

Besides that I am also a big bookworm, music and movie lover and enjoy to spend time with friends. Oh, and I love to take photos! :)

Favorite Music

I am mainly into pop, rock, alternative and indie. I always love to discover new music and bands.

Artists I enjoy are for example Mando Diao, Lily Allen, Katy Perry, Silbermond, Jason Mraz, David Guetta, Farin Urlaub, Razorlight, Philipp Poisel, The Black Eyed Peas, Billy Talent etc.

Recently I have also discovered my love for musical. So far Lion King and the Rocky Horror Show have been my favourite.

music

Favorite Movies

I especially like comedy, romance and drama and am not into horror and science fiction. Movies I like are for example: Amelie, Like in Heaven, Donnie Darko, Pirates of the Carribean, Legally Blonde, Just like heaven, Brokeback Mountain, Chocolat.

Favorite Television

Gilmore Girls, Deseperate Housewives, Greys Anatomy, Queer as Folk, Glee, How I met your mother, Entourage, King of Queens.

Favorite Crafts

I sadly have hardly any time for crafting at the moment.

What I like...

Things that I love (and are always greatly appreciated in swaps):

  • nice pens
  • tube scarves
  • Sharpies in dark colors (esp. thin ones)
  • everything kawaii (I love Hello Kitty, Chococat, everything with strawberries etc.)
  • necklaces and bracelets (silver color or beads)
  • notepads, notebooks
  • decotape
  • letter sets (esp. kawaii, nothing with dogs or horses please)
  • tea (I love to try out new flavors, please note that I am not very fond of rooibos tea, white tea, and tea with spices; no loose tea please)
  • hot chocolate (if you are from the US you could make me very happy with SwissMiss hot chocolate) *sugarfree gum
  • sweets from all over the world (no dark chocolate and licorice please)
  • everything related to Sweden and Scandinavia in general
  • items with matryoshka doll print
  • items with owl print
  • books (English or German; esp. thrillers and chick lit)
  • everything pink, purple and brown/blue
  • lipgloss, lip balm
  • beauty products in general (shower gel, bath bombs, lotion etc.)
  • any Lush products
  • Concerning make up I prefer natural colors (I only wear black mascara, eye shadow in rose and taupe shades, transparent lip gloss, lipstick: nude and rosewood shades)
  • nailpolish (preferrably good qualitiy one. Colors I like are: grey shades, dark red, violet, purple, white, mud, taupe)
  • candles
  • everything with owls, fairies, angels and elves
  • beautiful picture postcards with nature motives.
  • socks (I wear European size 40)
  • books in Swedish language that are rather easy to read (children books or books written for Swedish- learners)- I am taking Swedish classes at the moment and it would be great to read simple books as a practise.

Dislikes

Things I don't like so much:

  • Scents: Coffee, Rose, Jasmine, Patchouli
  • very artificial scents and flavours in general
  • Coffee
  • Licorice
  • Dark chokolate, filled chocolate and chocolate with fruit flavor
  • Religious items
  • Items that have to do with politics
  • Tea: Rooibos tea, spice tea, Yogi tea, plain white tea, plain black tea, plain green tea.
  • Loose tea
  • Diddl
  • Disney
  • stuff with dog or horse motives
  • earrings (I sadly cannot wear most of them because of an allergy)

Please...

... contact me before giving me a 1 rating. I am not a flaker and I will of course resend a swap if it has disappeared on its way to you.

... note that addresses here are written in a slightly different way than the one swap bot shows to you:

  • Name
  • Street
  • ZIP CODE city ( Swap bot displays this the other way round)
  • Country

I will receive your swap either way, but it might be delayed a bit if the zip code is written after the city.

Flaked!

Very sadly I have been flaked on the following swaps and tags:

  • Random Envie tag from Kayleena via Big Swaps group forum. (tagged on Nov 1st 2010).

Comment: I just got your package - in the funniest way possible: The DPD courier service had apparently tried to call me several times before I realised that there's a packet coming to me; Then I spent one day home waiting for the delivery but there was no sign of it, so I gave up and went to see my friend who lives in the same town. We were smoking outside his house when I spotted a courier van parked in the street and had the silly idea to go and ask whether it was the same van which was supposed to deliver my package. And it was. And thus randomly I got your swap! I absolutely LOVE it. It's so thoroughly well-thought and neat, all the items you included were very wonderful and I'm happy to use them all. Thanks for checking out my silly profile & putting such a great packet together!
Response: Thanks a lot for your rating and the heart! :) It was nice to put this swap together for you!

Oh' my gosh! You are totally awesome! Thank you so much for the goodie package - you did not have to do this (from the Leave A Nice Comment #5 swap)!! I do understand that life happens, and when you are sick, swap-bot is the last thing to worry about! I love all the stickers and will put them to good use! Thanks so very much and I hope you are feeling sooooo much better! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Hi, I'm Jenn! I'm one of your partners for this swap! Let me just say how happy it makes me to see that you love Billy Talent! They are from my home town Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The school they went to is just down the street from me! I love to see Canadian music making it world wide! :)

And, I love the graphics that you have on your profile, they are beautiful! :)

Care to be friends?
