About Me

32 years old, married. Have a lovely daughter Alesia born March 8th, 2011.

I'm a doctor, work in the Emergency Hospital

My hobbies are: shopping (am i a girl?), driving, video games (especially RPGs), belly dancing, seeing different countries. The latest hobby is scuba diving. I love flowers, cats, smart gadgets. I'm really crazy about postage stamps, i have a great collection of stamps i received with letters and cards. And i spend a LOT of time surfing the web.

Favorite Crafts

Most of all I like everything connected with paper - origami, collages, quilling, decoupage. I like making greeting cards and special gift boxes.

I'm also good at sewing.

Important!

  1. Belarussian post seems to work slower than the European or American post. It sometimes takes my cards a month or more to reach the overseas destinations. Please be patient with me.

  2. I'm crazy about stamps. So please use real stamps when you send something to me. And the easiest way to get a heart from me is to send some used or mint stamps in your envelope.

  3. I ALWAYS send out my swaps. But our mail works unpredictable sometimes. So if you did not receive something from me, please PM me and i'll resend my swap.

What I like (kind of wishlist)

  • Postcards. I always prefer them in envelope. Even if the swap requirements say the postcard should go naked, I'd like it in envelope if it is ok for you. Here are my favourite kinds of postcards:

    • world's famous buildings, towers and skyscrapers,
    • Animals, especially native to your country, and cats.
    • UNESCO world heritage sites,
    • Buddhist and Hindu temples,
    • underwater views, diving sites,
    • everything about medicine,
    • lighthouses,
    • airports, airplanes, airlines (including airlines ad cards),
    • Totoro (my favourite anime character) or other studio Ghibli cartoons,
    • Gruffalo,
    • Bellydance, Ballet, other dances and dancers,
    • Kaj Stenvall, Inge Look,
    • Cicely Mary Barker's flower fairies,
    • Ad cards from Bulgaria,
    • cards that can make me smile.
  • Seasonal greeting cards: Christmas, New Year, Valentine's Day, etc.I love greeting cards for your local holidays and holidays we don't celebrate here in Belarus (Hanukah, Diwali, Chinese New Year, Thanksgiving day, etc.)

  • Stamps, both mint and used
  • First Day covers and Maxicards make me absolutely happy. I adore them!
  • Anything related to my favourite countries: Malaysia, Singapore and Sri Lanka.
  • Anything related to Miyazaki's anime
  • Hindu gods, especially Ganesh
  • Nice stationery, small post-it paper, small memo paper
  • Address labels with my current address (i have problems with my printer)
  • Tea
  • Lighthouses
  • ATC
  • Vintage
  • Beautiful envelopes
  • Colorful paper napkins (I use them for decoupage)
  • Kids staff for my daughter (suitable for her age of course)
  • Cosmetics, perfumes and make-up free samples and mini-sized items

What I don't like

There are no things I really dislike. I'll try to name some things I'm not really into:

  • Patriotic things
  • Celebrities
  • Anything related to smoking

I don't drink coffee and hot chocolate.

This is a great cultural exchange swap! last day to sign up: 21 Jan..!
