I'm 21, going on 22 (gosh, that's a scary thing to say) and I live in a little town called Bangor. At the moment, I work for the Welsh Tourist Board, so ask me anything about Wales! I'm not sure what I want to do in the future, but hopefully it's going to involve working with creative people!
I love to travel (so far I've been to Morrocco, India, France, Latvia, Finland, Greece, Spain and the Netherlands, as well as loads of places in the UK). I moved around a bit when I was younger, and I think staying in one place too long is bad for me.
I've just finished a degree in English Literature, which I loved. It made me read books I wouldn't have done otherwise, and it was a lot of fun being a student!
I enjoy most music, and will listen to anything once. If I like it, I'll be listening to it a lot more, and if I don't, I'm sure to find someone who does. I LOVE mix cds - if you want to make my day, send me a CD of your favourite songs. I also like a lot of Welsh language music.
Ooh, too many too list! I'm on bookcrossing (also as lucy-lemon) and am completely obsessive over it. My room is always full of books, although I am trying to get through the TBR pile. Mainly because my boyfriend gets annoyed with all the books cluttering up my room.
My favourites (at the moment) are the Harry Potter series, anything Jane Austen, Jane Eyre, North and South, Dickens, Margaret Atwood, Old English things.
I like quirky movies, and quite a lot of foreign language films. My all time favourites are the Wizard of Oz, Moulin Rouge, the Virgin Suicides, Ghost World, Casablanca, Strictly Ballroom and the HP series.
Recently, I've gotten really interested in zines, ATCs, anything handmade really. I think it's because I'm not very good at making things, so I'm amazed when people can. Anything handmade I will love, and if you could send me a zine you've made, I'd be made up.
I don't drink coffee, and only fruit teas. I also am not very interested in receiving "cute" things (although I am intrigued by kawaii). I'd prefer something quirky, or vintage looking, or just a bit odd :-)
If this information helps, I would love to receive:
buttons of any type, size and colour
quirky postcards
ribbons
letters
random things
zines
Mix CDs
I love vibrant colours, like deep greens, reds and blues.

Lucy you have still not sent your themed buttons but I can see you have logged on twice 12 & 14 Feb, since claiming ill health. You will be banned from any of my swaps in future.
