Hi there,

welcome to my profile! :)

Long Island is my home together with hubby, two adopted cats and two parakeets. I am a Medical Assistant but I changed my direction towards clinical Herbalism by going to a school in NYC. I am also working on becoming a holistic Nutritionist.

I am vegan! I'd prefer not to get any kind of food! Thanks for understanding!

Fore more info please refer to the content below :)

Have a fabulous day!

Please note: I have two addresses in the town I live in! Either one is perfectly fine to send to!

Crafts: 10/8/17: I just started swapping Decos again :) Papercrafts are a big thing for me but I am not a traditional scrapbooker. I just go with what feels right. Other preferred materials are wire, beads, clay, yarn, and lace (please don't send me wire and beads - I got too much of it!).

Letters: I have been writing letters since the age of eight. My longest pal has been writing me for 16 years and we have met a few times. If I look for penpals I am looking for long-term friends. I also like stationery such as unique writing paper, washi tape, and pens. And I love postcards!

Photography: My husband bought me a Lumix Camera in 2009 and I have been obsessed with that thing ever since. I now have a newer version and am still learning new features of it. I suck at uploading pictures I take somewhere though.

Gardening: We have a little garden where we grow some veggies and most importantly herbs. They play a huge part in my life!

Mostly read non-fiction at this point - most are on Herbalism, Medicine, and Nature.

If I read fiction it's probably Umberto Eco, Khalil Gibran, Paulo Coelho, Anais Nin, Henry Miller, Jules Verne, and whatever tickles my fancy at the time. I do love recommendations!

ambient, downtempo, psychill, goa, psytrance, electronic, indie, alternative, some classical

Tea, Coffee, Postcards, Vintage and Retro, Nature, Paganism, History, Old Maps, Conspiracy Theories, oddities, Huge amounts of Paper, Stationery, Photography, Poetry, Halloween, Autumn/Fall, Recycling, Cooking, Beaches, Hiking, Flea Markets & Thrift Stores, Games (Board - and Videogames), Cemeteries

Alcohol, Racism, Animal Cruelty, Disney (I am not hating it, just not a fan that much),

I try to send all my swaps in time and if they are bigger envelopes, I track them. If there is a problem with a swap please contact me before giving me a bad rating. Usually things can be worked out.

If you have any questions, please let me know. I am not new to swapping but a new face here so when mistakes happen, please let me know. I won't know if you don't tell me!
