If you were assigned as my swap partner and you will send me your swap as a parcel, or as a package that will have to be checked at the Customs services, please write on it instead of Irina, the name Cristina (is my mom s name and she will pick it up).

About rating: if I don't receive my swap I always contact my swap partner before I rate. I will never rate with a one or three, just because I think is nicer this way. I think is nice for you to do the same if you didn`t received my swap (I resend when need it). When I rate with a five almost every time I give a heart also. I try to do so as a sign of appreciation for the person who took a bit of their time to make my swap.

So please contact me if you have a question about a swap that you didn't received or you have to send.

Im into several music genres. At the moment I m listening to classical music and I ve discovered Chopin. But I also like Katie Melua, Feist, Carla Bruni, Pink Martini, Bruno Mars, Amy Winehouse, etc.

I find it hard to pick a favourite book. I read almost every day. If I have to pick just one book which I consider it a favourite it would be a book called "The forbidden door" written by a Romanian author and philospher named Gabriel Liiceanu. At the moment I m reading a series of 12 volumes about the History of Cultures and Civilisations. I like it a lot, there are many interesting things in it!

I like Grey s Anatomy.

It would be painting. I also knit a bit and sew from time to time. I m also interested in gardening and I have several indoor plants I take care of and this summer I intend to grow a garden as I have the neccesary place for it. I also like to cook. I m not very good at baking cookies, but I try to improve this area also.
