About Me

If you haven't received something from me PLEASE send me a message and I will resend ASAP. Thank you so much!

Hello and thanks for reading my profile in advance. A small request: if you send me any postcard or notecard then I would LOVE IT if you write something on/it it. I collect written postcards so in this way I can add them to my collection :) Thanks soooo much in advance. You don't have to write a lot, just a 'greetings from' is perfectly alright :)

My name is Joanne and I'm in my 30's. I live in The Netherlands in a small town in the Northeastern part and I love it here, it's quiet and cosy and there's lots of nature.

I have been a member of Swapbot before but haven't done anything on here for a very long time so I decided to make a new profile since my old profile doesn't exist anymore. (https://www.swap-bot.com/user:fee90) I'm not sure what happened to my old profile, it has been deleted, but the ratings are still viewable: https://www.swap-bot.com/account/ratings.php?id=Fee90 (thanks for swap-bot member @pahasiga for telling me this!). I have asked for help to merge the profiles but haven't heard anything yet (July '23 and November '23). If you have any questions about this, please send me a message! I have been an active memper in all kinds of swaps on FB and Instagram and have been a Postcrosser since 2013. I always send!!!

I speak Dutch, English and can read Swedish and German, so write me in one of those languages :)

I love postcards and stickers and I love to craft things. I also love to read and try to read as many books as possible. I read multipal books at the same time because then I can choose the right book for my mood. I love cooking too, so a great recipe is always welcome.

Thanks in advance for sending me something, I'm already excited!

If you've read all this, please draw me a small flower on the postcard. Thank you :)

Postcard themes I love

-- I always prefer my postcards written, even if the swap doesn't require it. So, if you want, I would love you to write on the postcard you send me. Even just a little greeting would be lovely. So, I can always remember where (and from who) my postcard came from. But of course, if you don't want to that's fine too, it's not a necessity, just a wish :) Thanks in advance! --

Mail

I'm not sure how long my mail takes to reach you, but if it doesn't arrive in 4-6 weeks please message me so we can figure something out! Please don't rate me down before you contact me :) Thank you!

Recently I discovered that mailboxes in my area aren't emptied every day (maybe because it's a bit remote for Dutch standards haha) so the date on a cancellation stamp may not match the day that I sent the mail out. Just so you know :) I always send, I promise!

Comment: Joanne, oh my goodness!!! Thank you so very much for this lovely bird info card of the Eurasian Collared Dove!!! They are ADORABLE. I love the entire bird themed envelope that you sent this in! The little bird sticker on the front is too cute, the bird stationary paper and the bird paper you wrapped the info card in are all amazing. You have made my entire day and brought so much happiness into my life with everything! I sadly have not seen them in Minnesota:( I just looked them up and it said they are uncommon to find here... hopefully if I travel somewhere I will be able to watch for them because they are adorable!! I am also going to look up how they sound as well!! I am so excited to add your lovely bird info card into my collection:) thank you SO SO very much again, I am so grateful<3<3

Comment: I must admit I love potatoes too. My favourite is boiled and then mixed with a little butter and cream. I could eat a bowl of that to myself!

I LOVED the opalescent wrap, and the artwork PCs were so vibrant and cheerful. the bookmark is perfect, what a perfect reuse, and great idea to laminate. I'm glad you had a nice holiday. I'll be visiting London and Dublin this summer, can't wait. The stamps were so pretty, and my daughter will enjoy the seed pod PC for her birthday, thanks again!!
