About Me

2023 Mid May update: I had food poisoning but am back and caught up now. Sorry for the delays!

Languages: English, Deutsch, 한국어

I love love looove playing tabletop rpgs. And board games. And card games. And computer games. And science fiction. And fantasy. And reading. I'm a geek.

I am in my thirties and share my flat with a black cat who is somewhat anti-social. But she's the cutest cat. Like all cats.

I am an avid herbal (+fruity) tea drinker (for tea swaps there's more info below). I do not consume caffeine - even as teas.

I'm a feminist, pansexual, and agnostic.

⟨ Some more stuff I like: ⟩

  • Things with a purpose
  • Things with more than one purpose that can fulfill all their purposes well
  • Good Excel sheets
  • Reading
  • Cats
  • Everything ATC related

➤ Letters & Notes

  • I enjoy reading random tidbits of information. The thing that just pops into your head. "Huh"-moments.
  • Recycled stationery (NOT trash - either stationery made of recycled materials or pages which might have had another purpose once but are beautiful to look at, eg: calendar pages, wrapping paper)
  • handmade cards and notes - I will never downrate for receiving handmade even if the swap says store-bought

➤ Tea

  • fruits and herbs
  • no caffeine [green/black/white..]
  • during the warmer months I drink the leaves from plants I grow on my balcony

➤ Reading

  • Science fiction and fantasy (and romance)
  • I don't like bad endings. I need my endings happy or at least satisfactory. Therefore I tend to read the last few sentences before I read a book.
  • My absolute guilty pleasure books are Nalini Singh's Psy/Changeling/Trinity books.
  • I have phases during which I binge webtoons and/or fanfiction (... DM/HP Auror Partners)

➤ Art

  • Landscapes
  • Flora & fauna
  • Fantasy
  • Art nouveau
  • Colorful portraits
  • Rain
  • Joy > melancholy
  • Weather phenomenon
  • Space phenomena

≠ I don't want to put down any dislikes - because if it's important to you or you like it then I'd love to learn about it.

⟩⟩ Let's be honest here: my decorating style is more on the minimalistic side - I love washi tape and small drawings, but I'm just not that crafty and only sometimes use accent stickers.

Crafts...

I mend my own clothes (if they're fixable).

If you count cooking as a craft then that's my #1. Mostly vegetarian meals. There are some nostalgia dishes that I cook from time to time which I include meat - but only well-sourced meat. I prefer salty foods over sweet foods most of the time. If you have a recipe that you just love - I'd be happy to give it a try!

I enjoy painting and started making cards and postcards after joining swaps here but my craft level & style is on the more minimalistic side.

I am now apparently addicted to ATCs. Thank you, dear swap-bot community, for bringing this joy into my life! (May 2023 update)

About my swaps

My personal belief is that everyone who puts time into handcrafting a swap deserves a heart. I love all of you for the effort and time you put in to bring artsy joy into my life!

I check "sent" once I come home after putting the swap into the local mailbox. Please be aware that my mailbox doesn't get emptied daily.

I will rate you as soon as I've received and opened your mail. If there's a problem I'll contact you and try to find a solution before rating a low score.

Please contact me if there is a problem with my swap or you haven't received anything a few weeks after I checked "sent". I'll be happy to send something again if it doesn't arrive or didn't fulfill the requirements.

Response: I still think the metal lips are fascinating.. apparently the original artwork is h.u.g.e. Imagine standing in front of a massive pair of metal lips ^^. Thank you for rating :)

Comment: I love what you did with the ATC! I have heard of Eurovision, but I haven't seen it before. Thanks!
Response: I'm happy you like it! I can only recommend it. It's extremely campy and strange - but if you just go with it and accept it as it is, it's a bunch of fun ^^

Comment: Thank you for the nice postcard. Eurovision sounds very interesting!
Response: It is! More so than the music I just love the community it creates. The music is sometimes .. questionable.. but the community is always fabulous!

Comment: Hi Fiona - I received your swap today and it's beautiful!!! I too am a messy hair kind of girl and I love the card too :) Thank you. Take care, Deb
Response: Thanks! What saved my hair a few years back is switching to a semi-curly-hair routine (hair soap, citrus rinse, conditioner, zero other products, and no heat). But the chaos will always be there XD

CPG Jan 2023 WTA 2 PCs

감사합니다 so much for the pcs and I love the same one as you do, the Korean Cultural pc. I lived in SK for 2 years and miss so many things about the country. I am sure you do too, thank you for sharing!
