About Me

Hello! I am Svetlana, I am new to Swap-Bot and I am super excited about joining!

I live in Russia, in a small place just north of Moscow and I commute to Moscow to work. I have also lived in the U.S. for 3 years. I am 30 y.o., recently married, with no kids yet. My favorite things are hiking, camping, or simply long walks outdoors. When I am home (or when it is too cold and snowy for outdoors, haha), I love reading, cross-stitching (would love to learn other stitching styles), music (I play the piano and used to play the cello) and learning foreign languages. Besides English, I have learned German, French, Spanish, Dutch and Finnish (my most recent passion) so I am always excited about anything in these languages.

Swaping experience

I am new to Swap-Bot but I have been on Postcrossing for over 8 years by now. I love postcards and stamps, but most of all I like meeting new people and sharing about lifestyles and cultures, so maybe I have tended to focus more on the message than on decorating. My goal on Swap-Bot is to find a balance between the two and to try to get creative and swap more things apart from postcards!

I am a bit anxious about whether post will treat all my items well - if my swap has not arrived, please let me know and I will re-send.
