Hallo! I am 30 something, married, with 2 children, 5 and almost 2.
My girls and I are in love with mail. Letters, postcards, stamps, used and unused, mail art!! my mail lady, mailboxes.... we love it.
I swap for the joy of making others happy and getting mail myself and not for the rating.
If I participate in penpal swaps, I am actually interested in becoming penpals. I write long, personal letters and I would love to hear back from you :)
Though I haven't had very many cases of lost mail, it seems to happen, so please let me know if my swap did not reach you, thank you :)
I love mail art, which to me is every and any effort you put in decorating your mail.
For my own wedding, I created a everlasting bridal bouquet (not silk flowers..) and my own invitations. I enjoyed that a lot and I would love to do it for a living.
I recently started crocheting Granny Squares and I enjoy it a lot. I learned how to crochet flowers too and now I want to make other things too. I would love to crochet a fox one day. :)
Woodland! Everything woodland. I love Spring and Fall. My favorite colors are: teal and berry, both in combination with gold or silver or grey. Also mint, peach and rose gold. I like pretty feathers and everything dog related, too. I love hot beverages. Tea, except plain black or green tea, coffee, hot chocolate, cider,...
I have a Happy Planner and Bullet Journal and I love everything for my planners - such as planner stickers, stamps (clear cling or regular), washi, sticky notes, clips etc.
I had to get my first one to understand, that I don't want ad-cards. I appreciate to read some more on my card than just the name of the swap. ;)
I also don't like anything religious related.
I don't like Kawaii, at all. Sorry.
Please no American candy, ooops :D
It is very important to me that you know, exchanging letters is one of my most important hobbies to me. Mail connects people and since I am a foreigner in my own country, it is an important way to stay in touch with family and friends and I have learned it is possible to build friendship through letters, too.
I write long, chatty, personal letters and I trust my penpals.
I also like to decorate my envelopes, you might say it's not mail art, but it's art on my mail and you will never get a white envelope from me. If I join a penpal swap it is because I am actually looking for penpals and I really hope, you are, too.
I will always! reply to my letters.
I am addicted to decorating and using my planner. I used to use an EC, I switched to the Happy Planner by Mambi. I currently also started a Bullet Journal and love it!
My husband and I are fostering dogs for our local rescue. We also adopted two rescue dogs. This is the most rewarding but also tough thing to do. I am very passionate about what I do.

Welcome to One Stamp Swaps!
You are late sending out the Adventures of the Traveling postcard R24! Please send out ASAP!
Thank you! Annie
I see you have not participated in Adventures of the Traveling Postcard in some time. Do you still want to participate? There is a round listed right now! If you do not wish to participate, please let me know so that I can get any postcard that you may have in your possession.
Thank you Annie
Hallo! Ich hab es leider noch nicht geschafft deinen Brief zu beantworten. Ich hab so viel Arbeit zur Zeit und jetzt verreise ich für 3 Wochen. Ich schreibe dir dann im April. Versprochen! Danke noch mal für deinen Brief. Ich hoffe alles ging gut mit dem Umzug. :) LG Katti
Hey Catrin!
I'm Dóri, your partner in Read Profile - Write comment swap. I see you're also addicted to snail mails, mee too! :) Although I'm not so brave to participate in lettermo.com :$ That's also very nice your dream came true and you live in the USA momentally :) I have been there, in Boston, New York, the Niagara Falls and Washington DC, but my dream country is Finland :) I haven't been there yet, but I hope in the next few years this will change :)
Hello, I am your partner for the Read Profile-Write Comment Swap. My mother was born in Germany, but I never have been there, one day. I love penpals too, but find it hard to write handwritten letters, it is much easier to type them or have an email penpal with having two active kids. Hope you have a great day.
Me again! I hit send too quick! I am new to SWAP BOT and am enjoying swapping and getting to know new people. I like to swap art more than letters and postcards, but perhaps we will see each other in a swap one day!
Nice to get to know you!
Hi! I am your partener in the "Read Profile and Write Comment Swap". I I see you are from Germany. I have been to Frankfurt and thought it was beautiful! Loved itI I am glad you found your cowboy! :) I love in Indiana, so it is not as far south. We are cold in the winter and hot in summer.
