Hi all, I'm going to be taking a break from swap-bot for a while as I'm living in Kuwait for work and I've been told that the mail service is terrible here, parcels go missing all the time. I might be able to get a couple of swaps in during the holidays, we'll see :-) Happy swapping everyone and I'll be back soon!!

I'm Emma, I'm a 29 year old female from the UK. I say female as I know I am too old to refer to myself as a girl now but don't feel old enough to be a woman! LOL. i am a primary teacher. I live with my dogs Dillon, Sasha and cat (Benjamin) Linus, they are my babies!! I'm an easy going person who sometimes drifts off into my own world but am still always there for those who need me or are special to me.

I listen to most kinds of music except for hip-hop and rap. Saying that I am mostly a rock/indie kinda girl. I like Lacuna Coil, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Florence and the Machine, Kings of Leon, SOAD... List goes on. But am also open to people suggesting new music to expand my collection

I love to read and am a total book worm. I love novels with a good storyline that will keep me hooked and turning the pages! I llove the Twilight books and adored them before they became popular. I also like Harry Potter, so much so I had to buy the U.S. version of the first book!

*Postcards: *Views of where you live or an great view of somewhere you visited. * Animals *Cartoon: Hello Kitty, Disney- esp Tigger, Diddl, Snoopy... * Art postcards- both modern and classic art. *Flowers * Buildings * Vintage * Black & White Etc...

Other Items: * Address labels * Stickers * Cute Writing paper, writing sets. * Fbs * Key chains * Fridge magnets * Letters * CDs * Books * candy * Make up- lip gloss, nail polish... * Glass beads * Glass buttons * Ribbons * Fabric * Embellishments for card making * Sparkly Things

Basically I will just like anything you want to send me!

Likes:

I have just started to get into crafts. I’ve just inherited my grandmother’s sewing machine so I’m looking for anything I can make that means I get to use it!

My favourite colours are Pink, black, yellow, red... not all at once obviously, that wouldn’t look good!

I’m a bit of a girly girl (but not totally) so I like cute sparkly things, anything with glitter and sparkles is going to make me smile! I also like hello Kitty, Disney and adore Snoopy!! Snoopy items are so hard to find here in the UK so if you sent me anything Snoopy I would love you forever!

I am a huge tea fan, although I’m not really into fruit teas, black tea, green tea, herbal teas are all great! I do drink coffee but not as often, I prefer flavoured coffees.

I m a total, self confessed chocoholic and believe that I can never have enough! I like dark, milk and white chocolate. I like chocolate with fruits especially cherry, orange and raisins. I was recently sent a white chocolate Kit-Kat which was amazing!!!!! I like to try new chocolates and candies so like to receive new and different candies from all over the world!

Dislikes:

This is a short one. I don't like anything mint flavoured so please no mint teas, candy etc. I also don't like black liquorice.

Basically I don't like anything that hasn't had any thought put into it. If you've read my profile and chose something you think I might like then I'm happy! I will always do my best to do the same for you! Please only send things that you would like to receive yourself.

This is for my partner on treat for a family member 2011.

My mum also has penpals who she loves to write to and so I think she would really appreciate some new cute writing paper, stickers... She also like postcards with views of towns/cities/states keyrings, candles, candy address labels nail varnish fridge magnets hot chocolate or tea sachets Something traditional from your country/state (something that we can't get here!)...
