November 2023

I've returned to Swap-bot after a lengthy absence due to illness and life. I don't know if I can fix any of the 1's since it's been 7+ years but I will message those partners to see if I can make them up.

I take photos of all my swaps.

If you need to ask me any questions please message me I am happy to answer.

I am a 40+-year-old married stay-at-home mum to 2 kids. (1 has already left the nest)

I absolutely LOVE swapping, I love sending and receiving swaps from and to other countries.

I love movies, I watch all kinds, mostly at home now but also love to go to the cinema.

I collect used stamps and postcards from around the world that show me the world.

My hobbies are crafting, reading, taking photos, watching movies/TV series, cooking, gardening, writing letters, doing swaps (of course lol), shopping and decluttering (yes it has become a hobby cause it's never finished). I do lots of other things but more sporadically. I also volunteer at the school my kids go to.

I will always look at your profile to see if I can send something/s that you might like or can use/eat etc. I always try to send great swaps because that's what I want in return. I will never send crap/sh*t lol, I may find it hard if you don't have a very well-filled-out profile, but then I just try and send some good quality things that I would like to receive.
