I pledge to send and rate all swaps! If something does not arrive please let me know and give me the option to resend before rating me with a one! I reside in South Africa, so my packages travel a far distance.

Receiving a special something in the mail, from another part of the world instantly brightens my day!! I'm sure you know the feeling!?

About me...

I'm a 31-year-old female located in sunny South Africa. I'm a qualified school teacher but have traded my profession to study Psychology.

I'm trying to discover my spiritual path.

I'm currently exploring Wicca, but have also taken an interest in Buddhism.

I'm interested to learn as much as possible about alternative religions so that I may find a spiritual path to fully commit too. Someone once told me:

"Stand for something, or fall for anything"

and I would like to stand for something rather than to just drift around aimlessly.

I enjoy...

Crafts!

I enjoy all kinds of arts and crafts and have a keen interest in photography. At the moment I'm into paper quilling and crocheting.

This is my latest quilled card:

Baking!

I also enjoy cooking and baking and welcome tried and tested recipes from all around the world.
