Hi!~ My name is Gwen

I'm a rather shy girl who spends too much time daydreaming.

I love receiving nicely packaged mail and I get really excited checking for packages/goodies in the mailbox. I try to make my swap partner's packages as nice as possible (I reused mail packages by the way).

I send what I would like to receive and hope you will do the same too. It makes smile when someone tells me how much they love what I send. I like making people happy, because it makes me happy !

You'll definitely receive a heart from me if you took the time to read my profile and send something nice.

Don't be alarm if my profile looks different, my taste & interests changes every so often.
