About Me

I'm a Finnish postgraduate student and language teacher living in Helsinki. I love colourful things, making handicrafts, flea markets, baking, photographing, blogging, nature, yoga... just to mention a few things!


PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE RATING ME A 1! I always send out the swaps, so if you didn't receive anything from me the swap must have been lost in the mail. I am willing to resend if this happens!


I've noticed that it takes quite a lot of time for mail to reach me from the USA, so all American swappers, please be patient with my rating! I'll let you know if it looks as though your swap has been lost in the mail. I'm always delighted to receive swaps from the USA. :)


I love to receive mail in the foreign languages I speak (French, English, Spanish)!

Je parle également français. Hablo español también. Jag förstår svenska men pratar inte så bra.

Favorite Television

Game of Thrones, The Good Wife, The Mentalist, Private Practice, Criminal Minds, Downton Abbey, The Big Bang Theory, Sherlock

Random things I love/Wishlist

  • tea (more information downwards!)
  • hot chocolate (especially flavoured ones, it's super difficult to find them in Finland)
  • all sorts of handicrafts: knitting, crocheting, bead & fimo jewellery making, card making...
  • animals: especially cats, foxes, sheep, cows...
  • I have a little obsession with French bulldogs & pugs so anything related to them is highly appreciated!
  • chocolate (especially dark chocolate!)
  • ginger
  • candles
  • lip balm (I would love to receive lip balm from your country!)
  • washi/masking tape
  • my favourite colours atm are turquoise & yellow, but I also like other bright colours like orange, purple and pink
  • nail polish & nail art
  • baking-related items (like cupcake cases)
  • Pusheen the Cat
  • Disney films (my favourites are Beauty and the Beast and the Little Mermaid!)
  • notebooks (I have a little collection of mine)

Things I don't like

  • coconut flavour + scent
  • Christmas in general (I know, crazy huh?)
  • excessive glitter
  • cherry-flavoured things
  • Hello Kitty and such
  • bugs
  • herbal tea

Tea!


If the swap is not especially tea-related, I prefer to receive other things! Since I do lot's of tea-only swaps, I'd like to receive other things than tea in other kinds of swaps. But if you like to include a tea bag or two in a random item swap for example, I don't mind! I hope you see what I mean...?


My favourites are:

  • flavoured black teas
  • flavoured white teas
  • flavoured green teas
  • special teas from your country
  • your special favourites (please note which one is your favourite!)

I don't like:

  • vanilla flavour
  • cherry flavour
  • coconut flavour
  • infusions, fruit & herbal tea in general
  • the most common teas (like "normal" Lipton/Twinings etc. - these brands are OK if the flavour is something else than plain black/green tea though! special flavours are appreciated!)

Please don't send me infusions and other herbal/fruit teas (without any real tea in them)! All local brands are appreciated!


Some teas I'd love to receive again because I liked them so much:

  • Pickwick's Speculaas tea - it really does taste like cookies!
  • Pickwick's Caramelized Pear
  • Pickwick's Lemon Pie
  • Cupcake teas - the packages are so cute!

I always try to include Finnish tea (mostly Nordqvist brand) in the tea swaps (accompanied with some more known brands).

Comment: Thank you for the journey of your day and the treats! The teas smelled divine. Is the one really rooibos, orange, and chili? I'm excited to try it.
Response: Nice to hear that you liked the swap! And yes, it is rooibos, orange and chili - though you can't really taste the chili in my opinion. Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do! :)
