Hi!

I'm here because I love the little joy of finding something handmade or handwritten in my mailbox. There's something magical about snail mail in a digital world — the stamps, the paper, the effort someone put into it.

A bit about me: I'm a 38y old maker at heart living in Berlin, Germany. When I'm not working (in IT), I'm usually crafting or out geocaching — hunting for hidden treasures with just coordinates and a good puzzle to solve. I also enjoy board games and Exit-rooms and I love to travel!

I enjoy handwritten letters — tell me about yourself, the area where you live, or your travels (especially places worth visiting!). I also love reading about other cultures, customs, and local food. If you're not comfortable sharing personal stuff, just tell me about things you're passionate about, a book or show you love, or whatever's on your mind — there's always something nice to write about!

My favorite themes for decorated mail or crafts are travel, Japan, and everything botanical — but I'm genuinely open to a lot of things!!

Goodies I enjoy:

Good quality washi tape (it doesn't have to be expensive to be good quality!) PET tapes (especially botanical ones and girl stickers) Labels Die cuts & cutting dies Stickers Wax seals Tea (fruit or herbal — but no black tea or rooibos, please) Memo sheets Embellishments Anything else I can use in my journal

Paper and bookmarks are okay too, but I already have far more than I need. 😊

Artists & brands I love: LCN / Lin Chia Ning, Loi Design, Windry R., Classiky, Stamperia, hippie.post, albumlovehandmade — and many more!

I'm not really into the cute/childish stuff, things like Hello Kitty, Labubu, and similar. Vintage photos and postage stamps aren't really my thing either — unless they feature nice illustrations, like botanical or plant motifs. Anything with beautiful artwork or a nature theme always wins me over.

One request: no religious items, please. I'm not queer myself, but I'm an ally — LGBTQ+ folks are always welcome to swap with me, and I have zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind.
