Remember:

Please nothing childish but cute/kawaii is welcome

I'm not easily disappointed as long as I see you really put some effort in your swap. I also do that and it sucks if people don't do their best to make others happy. Swapping is supposed to be fun for everyone

Food, candy, chocolate, snacks

I really like: Snacks, candy and chocolate especially from your country, chocolate (milk, white, 'weird tastes', with nuts, with fruits, with alcohol, with mint), something you really recommend me, things with strawberry or lemon flavour, Japanese candies (those sticks in different flavours, and I loooove the Milky candy), chocolate from Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Belgium, cookies, cookies with chocolate, crisps, anything with nuts, chocolate with sea salt. Surprise me with something you'd recommend me. I'm willing to try (almost) anything.

DISLIKES: I don't like: ginger. Not at all. Also the green tea / matcha thing is something I don't like.

Hot beverages

Coffee

I'm a big lover of coffee, latte machiato, cappuchino, hot chocolate, tea, chai tea, and coffee with special flavours. I'd love to try all kind of coffees and hot chocolates from all over the world. Every taste is welcome, also weird ones. I'm already excited yet!

Also those special sirups to put in the coffee are welcome. I'd like to try something new! I also love anything Starbucks.

Tea

When it comes to tea, my favorite is Rooibos and all variations on it. Autumn teas and winter teas are lovely; I like it spicy (cinnamon and other spices). Please, preferably, don't send me Pickwick tea because that's available on every corner of the street here :) Feel free to send me loose tea as well (but be sure you pack it very well). I'm open to new flavors and new things.

DISLIKES: I don't like: Ginger, tea with 'smokey' flavours, tea with a sour flavour (if it's sour, I probably don't like it).

Postcards

My postcards preferences are:

  • #1 - Pugs ❤️ I love them and I collect pug-postcards :-)
  • #2 - Subway maps (I already have: London, Munich, Hamburg, Berlin, Paris, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Vienna)
  • #3 - Books, bookstores, reading people, and so on.
  • #4 - Touristic views, beaches, national parks
  • #5 - Typewriters, coffee, tea, brushes, rainbows, staircases, cats in windows, black and white cards, owls, photo camera's, pencils, and so on
  • #6 - Shopping streets / markets / festivals
  • #7 - Motivational or spiritual quotes
  • #8 - (ad)cards from bars, café's, clubs, hotels

Last but not least...

People should treat other people as they wish to be treated themselves; also on Swapbot ;-) I'm absolutely not a flaker. If you haven't received something from me, then please let me know, so I can (try to) fix it.

I never rate 1 or 3 without sending a message first. I hope you will do the same. I also rate my swaps as soon as I receive them.

I'M PRO RECYCLING AND UPCYCLING! I RE-USE MY PACKAGING!

P.S. If you want to be friends on Nintendo Switch so we can play together, just send me your friend code and I'll be glad to add you
