About Me

Me and my partner live in Malmo in south of Sweden. I'm 42 years old and I work as a tester for a software company, very stressful at times but I love the people I work with. We LOVE to travel and get to know new cultures, taste new foods. Our two longest trips so far have been to Japan (for his 40th birthday) and South Africa (for my 40th birthday), so they have a special place in our hearts. In Japan we got to experience the marvellous celebration of cherry blossoms. And in South Africa we found dear friends and got to go on safari.

I love reading books, mostly fiction but also some non-fiction like memoirs, travel books, books about culture and society, psychology. I go to exercise classes at a health club. I like to train something similar to aerobics, water aerobics, spinning, flexibility classes, yoga, meditation. My other great hobby is knitting and crocheting and other types of crafts. I like to do anything from smaller accessories, socks, mittens, shawls, cute animals, and also clothes like sweaters and cardis.

I am very committed to anything I sign up to do and I would always try to understand the needs and wishes of the person I'm sending to, I want them to have a really HAPPY mailday.

Comment: Thank you for the cute card. I love the baby surrounded by books... Magical! I'm not reading much for fun right now. I just started back to school for my MBA. So most of my reading is for class.
