Heeyyy! 😊

( Before freaking out, watch out for my english, your capabilities as an english speaker might get hurt!)

I'm Maddie, a citizen of this Universe, a lover of poetry and journaling; as well as getting to know new people, traveling and a lot of common passions that everyone has! I'm not those huge activist over everything, but I like to call me feminist! Which I think that each of us should be in a certain way: not women over man, not men over women; same opportunities and no gender roles! I use to travel often, specially to USA, and it is a culture I already know a lot about! I would like to travel to some countries in South America and Asia like my next travels, as i've never been in any asian countries, and in South America only in Mexico and Cuba, that doesn't even count as South America!

I'm new here in Swap-Bot,discovered this some days ago on a random research but I'm already into Postcrossing and Pen Pal, for a while and so I decided to try something a bit different! This all concept of getting to know the world without stepping out of your house is just the perfect thing for me! I get so inspired with all the connection between unknown people, that in common might only have the passion for letters, communication and discovering new things!

Sending to Europe is easier for me, but I'm totally into other countries as well! My penfriends are usually from Asia, specially Indonesia, and I already do a lot of shipping for other countries so it's not a problem, it only takes more time, and obviously more budget!

I'm super into stationary exchanges as other goodies! But I would love to be part of any type of swap! I do collect stamps, and old pictures, maybe that you don't even show up in!

I'm not those persons with a defenitive wishlist but here I go with some suggestions:

• Any kind of tape, specially with flowers and pastel colors;

• Stickers, stamps and patches all over the place!

-Pictures, polaroids, images that you took on random places that you passed trough;

• A coin, even if it doesn't have a lot of value, as I love to collect coins from all over the place;

• Homemade pieces of art, or anything that you did with your heart and soul!

• Anything related to Aesthetics stuff, 90's postcards, Retro pictures or Art hoe stickers

• About Tea, definitely Chai is my favorite, jasmine and lavender tea, flower flavored tea, mint tea, indian tea I love as well, it is really up to you, and please closed tea bags/wrapped teabags, if you don't mind!

-any kind of stationary, I'm obsessed with it!

-rings, with eyes or any other excentric thing, even if they are low-cost products;

-candy (closed packages again, please) from your country, I love to try new candy

-I love any vintage thing, old school items, maps from unknown towns, a bit of everything

• And I LOVE yellow!

Each postcard might have traveled more than you in the last months, and each tells a brief story that someone is trying to tell you! Someone you have never seen, or heard! For me they are just like tiny windows into someone's soul! I like any type of them, except those cheap prints, with no quality!

The fact that you are new makes everything complicatted: you don't have any rating and sometimes it gets hard to get into any swap! Please, if you are a swap organizer, pay attention to that and remember that you have been a beginner once!

I'm absolutely into post crossing, because sometimes it is easier not to keep a long term relationship! I just need to get a postcard, get inspired with some music, and write about it, or about life, or any subject in general. Then, you just put the adress, sometimes without putting nothing than my nickname on the bottom, and send it! Easy as that! If you would like to do some direct swap, send me a message! :))

Friends through pen and paper, expressing feelings, emotions, problems and getting to know each other in a much serious way! Well, to be honest, I have a problem keeping long term conversations, but with a letter a month it is easy and keeps you interested about getting to know more! I used to have a bullet journal, that I don't do anymore, and penpal really reminds me of that in a certain way, except the fact that you are talking to someone that really exists somewhere out there! My experience is not huge but right now, I am already with 3/4 partners, so I'm not looking for more penfriends at the moment!

Well, after telling you a little bit about me I hope that you got to know me better! I'm dying to get into a swap and experience that!

Hope to swap and talk, share new experiences and have fun!

xx Maddie 😚
