About Me

I´m married girl from South East Finland. I'm an engineer, who works as forwarding agent, but I still wonder what I will be.

I have been swapping for several years now. I just love receiving and sending mail. :) I started with FBs and decos, but swap mainly other things nowadays. It's great to receive something from other countries!

For sock swaps: my size is European 39-41

Favorite Books

I´m always reading something, I love it. One of my favourite books is Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto. I could read that book over and over again. I collet Merri Vik´s Lotta-books.

Some of my other favourites have been novels by Jonathan Carroll, Anna Gavalda, Jennifer Weiner, Sophie Kinsella, Joel Haahtela, Sujata Massey, Sarah Gruen, Mika Waltari, ...

Favourite Television and Movie

I´m not so much into TV, but there is one I follow: Desperate Housewives. I also really like Madventures (it's Finnish).

My favourite movies are Amelie, Some like it Hot, Moulin Rouge, cartoons,... I like musicals a lot.

I like...

Besides swapping, I like letters, reading and cooking / baking. (So baking supplies and kitchen towels are very welcome in profile surprise swaps.) Lately I have been learning a little sewing and knitting. I like also candles, The Muppet Show, theatre, nice-looking tins, Moomins, hot chocolate (I wish we could have flavoured ones here!), black and white photos, retro, reusable shopping bags, musicals, polka dots, Love is..., Audrey Hepburn, Alice in Wonderland, zakka, autumn, handmade/natural soaps/shampoo bars (I love to make them too) and other body care products, surprises, matroyskas, art postcards, history, berries, decorating magazines, flea markets, etc.

I have studied, besides English, a little Swedish, German, Russian and Japanese. My dream is to travel more (and more) and I´m interested of other cultures.

Colours I like: red, chocolate brown, white, olive green, ... I like dark colours more than light, but there is no colour I'd hate.

I love tea. My favorite tea is flavoured black tea (please no peppermint or lemon tea). Bags or loose, both are fine. If you send loose tea, please list the ingredients, thought I don´t have any allergies. I just prefer to know what I´m drinking. :) I received some Tea Forté teas via swap-bot and really loved them (especially the Coco Truffle and Belgian Mint!)!

I love also chocolates, even more than tea. :) I like especially orange chocolate. Plain ones are my favourites after that, although I like also berries or nuts in chocolate. I prefer dark, but I´m not so big fan of white. I'm open to taste new flavours. I received some Pepperidge Farm Soft baked Dark chocolate Brownie cookies via swap-bot and I must say that I really love them!

Dislikes....

I don´t like neon colours, coffee, make up , Diddl, cats or any real animal/insect pictures, coconut, usual souvenir stuff, anis, bananas, religious stuff, skulls, Halloween stuff...
I'm not so much into things without function.

If anyone...

is interested of any private swap, please contact me! Let's see, if I can get what you would like to receive. :)

Some items I would like to swap for....
♥ Zebra Pticolon Gel Ink Pen - 8 Color Set
♥ Kusmi tea (with tin)
♥ PIP Studio's tea pot and Back to School stationeries
♥ Seattle chocolates
♥ Valrhona chocolates
♥ Dumpling Dynasty tins
♥ Euro coins (if you like, I can send you also euro coins as return, except 1 and 2 cents as they are not used in Finland):
Belgium: 2 cents
Cyprus: all coins
Greece: 1 cent, 2 cents, 5 cents, 10 cents
Luxembourg: 1 cent, 2 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 1 eur, 2 eurs

About swaps

I promise to send my swaps on time. If I can not, I´ll let you know about it before the deadline.

I´ll rate swaps as soon as possible when I have received them. And I promise to rate always, also in cases when I have received nothing, but I´ll PM you first. I hope that also you will rate my swaps and will let me know if my swap doesn´t reach you in reasonable time or if it wasn´t what it should have been - so that I can send you a new one. :) Please PM me before rating, if you haven´t received my swap! Thank you.

Comment: Thank you for such a lovely package. I've already tasted the crispy chocolate bar and it's so yummy! And it's perfect timing for the hot chocolate - we've just gotten a cold, rainy spell here. I love the journal and the ribbons - both will be put to good use. Thank you!

Comment: Thank you for this great selection of Finnish items ! Especially the chocolate, which is already all eaten up ;op and the porridge which I haven't tasted yet but looks interesting. I haven't recieved part 2 of this swap yet but since I got 5 envies in total I thought you ought to be retad right away :o) I wanted to give you a heart because I really liked swapping with you, but I'm not sure the overall value of what you sent reaches the 44€ of the kusmi tea boxes. I'll let you judge when you get my package. xoxoxox
Response: I'm glad to read that you like items you have received so far. The part 2 is coming in economy mail, and it's a box, so I hope you will find a lot of goodies from there as well. :) But please let me know asap, if you still think after receiving the box, that the swap has been unfair! //// EDIT March 11th: I'm really relieved to know that you received the box! :) And very happy to read that you liked it! Thank you for the heart and also for swapping with me! :)
