About Me

Hello! I'm Carmen. I live in the Lower Mainland of BC, Canada with my fiance, his mother, and a black (tuxedo) cat named Enzo.

I have various credentials in the field of Psychology, but am very indecisive as to what I'd like to pursue as a career, so who knows where I'll go next.

I've recently discovered a love of all things mail related and swapping fun, so decided to give this a try after it was brought to my attention :)

  • Quick Note: I'm incredibly easy to please! If you can't match my preferences/wishlist very much, don't worry about it :) Send a surprise! Or feel free to contact me :)

Hobbies

My hobbies include (but are not limited to, because I always forget to mention things):

  • Reading
  • Writing fiction and letters
  • Crafts: knitting, beading, cross-stitch, papercraft, heat embossing, .....the list goes on
  • Video games
  • TV and movies (but the book is always better!)

I'm always on the lookout for new penpals, so if something in my profile catches your eye and you'd like to stay in touch beyond our initial swap, let me know :)

Postcard Preferences

I'm incredibly flexible on postcards, so send something you think I'd like! But please check my Flickr album to avoid sending duplicates as much as possible.

If you're a Postcrossing member, you can check my profile and favourites for inspiration :)

I prefer postcards to be written and stamped without envelopes, if at all possible.

I like to read about other people and countries, so it would be great if you could write a bit about yourself. I'm also fond of languages, so if you're able to write some thing in another language along wit translation, that would be cool!

Other Likes

  • Tweety Bird: I'm a MASSIVE fan and am always thrilled to receive Tweety items!

  • Tea: I'm open to all flavours, but if there isn't English on the label I'd appreciate a quick note letting me know the flavour!

  • Hot chocolate and/or coffee (or a mix thereof!)

  • Letter Writing supplies: Nice paper and/or envelopes

  • Bookmarks

  • Craft supplies: Yarn, ribbon, buttons, beads, stickers, cardstock, embossing powders (though I'm not sure how those would travel through customs), etc...

  • Surprise me!

Comment: I love the panda and your card is adorable too! I love using washi tape, it is so fun to experiment with too. Some of my best cards are happy accidents. What a great way to include the words too. I have the same words and I made them to make birthday candles. Thanks for the new way to se teh words. Hugs!
Response: I never would have thought to use the word tape as candles, so we're inspiring each other! I admit, I had a lot of fun pairing the words together and trying to decide on the best combo :) Thank you for the rating and the heart!

Comment: Thank you for the card!, I hope you got to build your snowman this season!
Response: Alas, no such luck. By the time we got decent snow (just last week!) it was much too cold to venture out into for too long (and also turned to icy rain). Thank you for the rating and the heart!

Comment: Hi, just picked up and opened your mail today on December 12th, 2023! Thank you for the card and the interesting stationery possibly from my own country (if not then probably from Hong Kong). Also, you actually didn't mark your items as "Sent" so I had actually thought you didn't send the items yet... So it was a surprise to receive your mail today and then now find out you had marked the items as Sent on December 11th (yesterday). Anyway, glad to receive your mail! Happy holidays, Kiyasu
Response: Thank you for the rating and the heart! To be honest the stationery was sent to me by a penfriend, so I don't know the origin. But I'm a fan of sharing the wealth and hope you enjoy it anyway! As for sending date - I marked it as sent in the swap ont he day I sent the last card. Since my partners were in 3 different destinations, I sent them according to how long I thought they'd travel - yours first and early, then the USA one a week or so ago, and finally yesterday the Canadian (domestic). I hoped in doing so things would arrive before the holidays - Sorry for the confusion!

I got your 2nd quarter reading log. Thank you for sending, I really enjoyed reading it. I use random number generator to decide what to read too. Also I am a part of Carpe Librum group on swap-bot. We have a nice monthly swap called Pick my next read. The idea is to let your swap partner to choose the book for you to read from the TBR list.
