Update profile: 14-04-2022

Please read the part about shipping at the bottom of my profile! And about my swaps and if you have me as a partner!

Hiiiii! I'm Melanie or as people like to call me: Mel. I am 30 years old from the Netherlands.

I am a pretty big nerd. Not because I am wearing glasses. But I am a writer and dutch author. So I love to read. Romance books. Sometimes Thrillers. And I used to read a lot of fantasy but I don't seem to enjoy those anymore. I also watch a lot of tv shows and movies.

I work in a store three days a week. In the other time I work on my books and I edit scripts of other dutch authors.

In 2014 I graduated in health care and before that I studied three years animal care. I like it both but I think I enjoy retail more.

I have this thing for notebooks. More like an addict because I have atleast twenty empty ones because I journal a lot. So yeah, someone who journals needs a lot of those.

And I am a sushi addict. I can eat that everyday for the rest of my life!

Things I wish for since my country isn't into the journal stuff they have in other countries.

My favorite animal is an elephant, so stickers, washi tape, memo sheets, etc is all really great!

Please don't give me a bad ratings. If you haven't recieved my package after 4-6 weeks, please message me. We all know how the mail system can be. Sometimes packages get lost or they will send them back to the owner. But I am always happy to sent a new one if it is lost!

Swaps!

I mostly host sticker and washi tape swaps. Sometimes I do profile decorations. I did a few now and learned from them.

I am telling you now, if you are to late, you will be banned. If you do not want to resend when your partner didn't recieve anything, you will be banned. Ofcourse there are valid reasons for being too late, but i don't accept bullshit excuses. If you can't affort or have the time to sent your envelope or package, don't join the swap. It is that easy! I keep a list with names!

If you have me as your partner!

I do not mind if you cut sticker sheets to fit the envelope. Whatever the requirements say, I won't rate you down for it. Sometimes the requirements say not to send kiddie stickers. This means no Disney stickers. I don't mind if you sent me those, I love them. So please do!
