Hello:) I am a 26 year old Kindergarten teacher living in the heart of the mid-west, but honestly belong in the Pacific NW near the Ocean! I love being a teacher because I can be a kid at heart without anyone around me really being bothered. I still love to climb trees and build sand castles, but also enjoy cuddling up with a fabulous book and a cup of tea or coffee! I love being outdoors and you will find me most nights and weekends walking my 2 dogs around the pond near my house. Also in my spare time I am a paper and jewelry crafter, although I would love to expand my artistic hand through different mediums. I love to collect art and books of many different geners. I play the piano and also dabble in painting from time to time. I love writing poems and telling jokes. I also love nature, the beautiful and ugly parts! I am a very open and honest person by nature so if you have any questions about me, just ask and I am sure I can help. I am new to swap-bot and in hopes of meeting others who can inspire and challenge me as well as engage in a creative community. I will be upfront and straight-forward about all my swaps and I hope I receive the same in return. I am here for the positiveness of the experience and am pretty easy going so I hope that this can be a enjoyable and amazing experience for me and all who I am in contact with. In ALL seriousness I am a easily amused gal, so lets have some fun!!:)

I am open to MOST music. My Only dislikes are Country. So, hit me up with anything, you and I might both be pleasantly surprised:)

Again, open to most. I collect Children's books, as I am surrounded by them daily, I have grown fond of the Authors and Illustrators of such books. I also love journals, the more unusual the better! Only objections are to Romance and Self-help Books, other than that pretty much anything goes:)

Love Historical and Documentaries!!! Independant Films also ROCK!! Have recently gotten into Anime, anything you think I might enjoy seems reasonable to me. I am open to watch anything once:)

I absolutely LOVE Paper and Jewelry crafts. I cannot knit, but love to receive handmade knitted goods from others masterful hands:) I am also very fond of little shrines and ATC's as well as photography and printmaking. I dabble in painting and pen and ink, trying to master my hand in those areas. Love Origami and paper cutting and folding. Mobiles are somthing I would love to work with as well. With me, I am open to try most things, so this is a nice way to explore those:)

I have just started collecting various things and am enjoying every second of it. I collect bird items, Children's books, Tiny Shrines, Jewelry, Anything having to do with Nature,Photography, Ceramic Mugs and things that are of circular nature. I have collected ROCKS since I was 2 years old, so that is always fun to add to, especially from different areas of the world.
