Hi Everybody, and welcome to my profile!

My name is Heidi, and I´m 37 years old. I live with my husband, Mikael, and our two wonderful kids. Jonas from november 2014, and The newest addition to our family is our daughter Josefine from febuary 2019.

I teach at the local school, and i am very passionate about my job. I teach danish, german and music. Most importantly I teach dyslectic children and manage the school library.

When i don´t grade papers, i am usually in the kitchen - i love baking! Or I am reading or playing with my kids - which is my all time favorite activity.

We love travelling, and have been many places around the world (our favorites for now are Germany and USA)

Although I love travelling, I am absolutely in love with Denmark, where I have lived my whole life. If you are looking for any danish specialities (food, candy, souveniers, postcards, and...) please let me know, and we can set up a private swap

colors I guess my favorite colour is orange (and fall/autumn colors in general), but I love many colors:) I try to keep our home happy and bright, so we use a lot of orange, lime green and yellow in our house. (except for december when everything magically turns red:))

Books I also really enjoy a good book. I read a lot of chick-lit . Favorites are Lindsey Kelk, Sophie Kinsella, Marian Keyes and others in the same style. I love to sit down after a long day and just switch off all contacts and relaxe with a good chicklit-book:)

Stephen King is my favoriteauthor. I have read all of his books (several times), and i´m still as scared as the first time i read them!

movies I love watching movies, but I am not really a "fan" of any movies or actors. . I am crazy about older movies like "the goonies" and "the neverending story", oh and "back to the future":)

Please think of this as inspiration and not a shoppinglist - I love to receive thoughtfully selected mail from my partners:)

• candy and chocolate ( I have a separate list below, but I am exited to try most things:))

• hot chocolate (yum yum)

• I love coffee!

• I do not collect stamps, however, if it is possible for you to put real stamps on your envelope to me, I would be very happy, since I put all of the envelopes in my smashbook:)

• Anything for my christmas journal (I love receiving christmaspapers, stickers, embellishments and such all year round!:))

• Christmas and/or winterthemed scarfs/hats (both for indoor and outdoor use. Homemade would be veeeeery welcome:). Also for my kids . they love it.

• for my husband Mikael. He would also love a treat, and I am just as happy to receive something for him as for myself:) He loves spices and seasonings. He barbeques a lot, and both my kids and myself loves it, when he is on Dinner-duty. Borh my son and my husband are big hockeyfans, so anything hockeythemed for them would be greatly appreciated! Sometimes I feel like the hockeyrink is our second home. My son plays since he was 2.5, and we spend many hours there each week. We also watch all the local games.

• anything made with inspiration from my profile.

• I would be much happier to receive one item in good condition than 5 items in poor quality.

I would love to get all sorts of candy/chocolate - i love trying new things!

Some of the things that I have tried and really love:

• creme eggs

*anything pumpkin spiced. Especially cakes and cookies.

• anything with watermelonflavour

*salted caramel anything

• any chocolate with berry or fruit taste

• i love things with fruit/sour flavour (esp lemon - yum yum!), as well as salty licorice.

• If you are in Norway I love Troika trippel nydelse! (And urge-soda, but I guess that will not be suitable for mailing:))

• anything with pumpkin spice flavour! (muffinmix, cookies, cakes...

  I do not eat hardboiled candies, or chewinggum, because they hurt my teeth) also I am really not crazy about mintflavour or raisins.

For some reason I have received some of these items, even though they are on my "no thank you - list". I am sorry, but most of it will just go straight in the trash. ( I do not mean to sound ungrateful, but I truly have no room for it - my two kids take up all of our space)

• anything religious

• tea

• hard boiled candies and chewinggum

• Please NO make up, beautyproducts, jewelry (exceptions above), lotions, nailpolish and similar

• please no random scrap/paper/stickers/postcards/quotes/magazine cutouts/similar unless they are related to my likes (Unless I am in a "random envie swap" or similar, then the above is of course just fine!:))

• I also have no need for souveniers, keychains, cat toys, erasers, pencilsharpeners, kawaii and random bits and pieces (I really have no room or use for them, sorry)

I always send out on time, and usually shortly after partners are assigned.

I re-use envelopes.

Post to and from Denmark is very reliable (sometimes the weather can cause a minor delay, especially in winter).

Please notice, that I deliver my mail in a small post"office", and I can not guarantee, that my envelopes will be stamped on the same day as I deliver it to the postoffice! (They do not stamp it untill it arrives to the mainquarters of the postalservice).

If you for some reason are not happy with something I sent you, please let me know. I aim to make my partners happy, and I really enjoy putting a lot of thought and effort into the things that I send out.
