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! :)

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.

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.

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

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

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

• nice pens

• 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)

• 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)

... 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.

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).
