Hi, nice to meet you :)

My name is Lian, 35 years old. I'm new to swap-bot, and looking forward to send some fun and happy mail, and hopefully to find new penpals.

I love to read, to travel, and to spend time in nature.I enjoy crafting and creating collage art and vision boards. I love to meditate and practice yoga, and I just try to make the best out of each day.

My worke place closed during the Covid situation, and when it reopend I decided not to go back yet so I can spend mor time with my son. Now I'm writing a book (trying to... it's hard, but I made it through first draft!) and I'm also doing oracle card readings.

My first penpal was my "Nona" (my grandmother). She was a wonderfull and optimistic lady. We started to correspond when I was 6 years old and kept it for twenty years. It was our way to send love and care in an envelope and also to stay in touch, because we didn't live close to each other. So as you can see, my love to sending mail started when I was a child, but I still love it just the same.

I love to read, you'll never see me without a book in hand or nearby, and sometimes on my phone...

My favorite genres is dystopia, Sci-fi and fantasy, but to be honest, I read almost everything if it's good.

Here are some of my favorite books and authors:

All books by Robin Hobb Never let me go / Kazuo Ishiguro When things fall apart / Pema Chodron I also love Shaun Tan books and illustrations, I think he is brilliant.

Gilmore Girls, Rick and Morty, Big Bang Theory, The walking dead.

Anything by Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli.

I love reading your notes, it makes the swap so special to read somthing that you wanted to share.

Favorites: Postcards, stickers, notecards, bookmarks, washi tape samples, tea and coffee. I also like illustrated pages from vintage books or old children books, and cute pictures that where cut from a magazin - it will all go in my creative journals.

I like floral designs, botanical and anything to do with nature and fairies, or coffee. Also I love everything with Moomin, and as an avid reader I like everything that is book related.

I collect postcards and bookmarks, and I like all bookmarks, also the free ones you get in the bookstore (one exception is bookmarks from bookdepository, as I already have too many of those).

Only a short list of dislikes: Loose leaf tea, achivment stickers, Disney, candy and blank touristy postcards. Thank you :)

I love swaping blank posrcards, and as a postcrosser I'm allways on the look for new postcards. It's nice to have a variety In my collection, so i'll probably be happy with any postcard you send. But I have only one request: please don't send blank touristy cards, because I don't have any use for those, unless you use it to write your note on - this I actually like. Just try to avoid the blank touristy postcards if you can.

Please take into consideration that shipping to and from Israel takes a long time.

It will take about 3-4 weeks to Europe and 4-6 weeks to United States and Australia.

Please know that I send all swaps on time, but it will still take a longer time to arrive than what you are used to.

However, if there is any problem, please contact me and let me know.
