2024is going to be a traveling year, yay! I have a laptop but due to weight restrictions I can only take my iPad. Most hotels I stay at have crappy internet service so I can't always go on swapbot. So if it shows I haven't been here it's due to my inability to connect.

Do it yourself shows, cooking shows. Documentaries that teach me something.

I enjoy mysteries, true crime stories, biographies, travel stories and I read cook books as a hobby.

I love colors but don't like red or really pink things. I'm a big fan of Art Deco, Gargoyles, Buddha pictures, elephants, colors and patterns of all sorts. I love tulips and pretty flowers. I'm into washi tape.But please don't send me more! My favorite painters are almost all the Dutch Masters, I like Monet and Georgia O'Keefe as well.

I would REALLY prefer no cursive handwriting, I wasn't raised learning how to read it and I have hard time reading it. If it is however how you write then please write a litte bigger with spacing!

I don't like strong scents either in perfume or candles. Real lavender is always good. Due to dietary restrictions no food please. Not a fan of cartoon items, **please no stickers,no Hello Kitty things I don't care for beach/overly flowery or very pink stationary.**

Favorite cities, Amsterdam-Lyon-Paris-Avignon-Mont Saint Michel-San Francisco- Seattle-Chicago.

Jack of all trades, very creative and active every day. I don't work but I volunteer at an educational farm and as a reading tutor. I love dancing, just got certified as a Zumba instructor.

Knitting, weaving and spinning my own wool. Coloring books is another thing I love, I have too many and not enough time to sit down and color.

Anything Latin or Zumba. Or both.
