About Me

Hi!:) My name is Karolina, I'm a journalism student and currently am working at a radio station. I'm a dreamy person, my zodiac sign is cancer, I have a lovely rabbit and a cat, I hope to visit Iceland one day, always have my closest people around me and be happy! I like: crafts, vintage, family, my friends, photography, riding a bike, writing, traveling, dancing, swimming, cooking, singing, watching movies, autumn, cozy talks, tea, hot air balloons... Simple, classic, vintage, even hipster styles are close to me. I am not a big lover of cute-pinky-barbie or gothic, kawaii, emo styles. My favourite colours are pastel and earth tones (autumn colours mostly). My favourite flower is forget-me-not and I'm into minimalistic thingies :) My favourite smells are fresh, natural, I'm a huuuge fan of the way tea tree oil smells. I also like to create jewelry and it's usually something small, but a nice detail to an outfit.

Sometimes I don't understand myself at all... I can be super happy about something and yet another minute loose all my good mood for no reason. But I try to be more optimistic about everything, it's easier to live that way, right? :) Oh, and I love snail mail + penpalling! If you feel that we should be friends, don't be afraid and just write me a message.

Favorite Music

I like all kind of music, my fav. artists at the moment are: Years and Years, Sam Smith, Disclosure, Alex Clare, Arctic Monkeys, Caribou, Florence + The Machine, The Weeknd, Imagine Dragons, SBTRKT, Bastille, "The Baseballs", Ed Sheeran, Mura Masa, MUSE, Birdy, Jazzu, Adele...

Favorite Movies

I like comedies, psychological films the most. Movies I liked: "Never Let Me Go", "Bruce Almighty", "Easy A", "The Shawshank Redemption", "Closer", "The King's Speech", "Intouchables", also the amazing "Mean Girls" and "The Devil Wears Prada" to which I come back too often for an evening chill.

Favorite Television

Friends, Twin Peaks, The Office, Shameless, Lie To Me, New Girl, GIRLS, American Horror Story, Hannibal

What I'd like to receive...

I am excited to send and receive all kind of nice surprises, but what would make me super happy is:

  • nice, storebought postcards. I absolutely adore all kinds of illustrations, also beautiful night life/city life/nature photos from inspiring places in your country. Silly puns (like Gemma Correll's ones) are my jam.
  • nice stationary: letter paper, stickers...
  • pin-up girls items (Anne Taintor items), vintage tin things
  • handmade/ecological cosmetics. I am a huge LUSH fan!
  • yankee candles (or tarts)
  • Bath and Body Works candles and other things
  • something from Starbucks (coffee, tea, tumbler, mug...)
  • HARNEY & SONS tea (especially the cinnamon one)
  • Spongebob items! Cute boxers, socks, stationary, home items, clock...
  • magazines about fashion or lifestyle for women, like ELLE GIRL, VOGUE, GLAMOUR, SEVENTEEN, etc. We don't have a lot of popular press like that, so would be great to read. In English, if possible :)
  • small, subtle jewelry or accessories. I love something very simple and minimalistic - druzy jewelry, gemstones, silver/golden details.
  • snow globes as souvenirs from your country. It's hard to send them unbroken, but I collect them, so it would be the greatest souvenir!
  • nice fuzzy warm socks or short socks to wear with sneakers, size 39 (I like something simple like dots or vintage flowers, or something fun like kittens, etc.)
  • my ETSY wishlist -marble items

Sweets and other foods

What I enjoy is milk chocolate, Kinder, Hershey's, Fazer (especially Dumle), Reese's sweets, Pop Tarts, Marks&Spencer food (probably everything:D), nice unusual cookies, sweet&sour gummies, crunchy, butterscotch sweets, marzipan, shortbread butter cookies, savory, salty snacks (chips for example), dried berries in chocolate (for example blueberries covered in chocolate).

I don't really like licorice, bittersweet chocolate (normal dark one is okay), mint or alcohol fillings, marshmallows, souffle, also please don't send very very sugary/low quality snacks. Also, please no Turkish delight candies (the ones in the powder) :)

My dislikes...

PLEASE NO:

  • Manga, anime, kawaii, Hello Kitty, k-pop items... I'm just not a fan of it! :(
  • religious items -cosmetic samples
  • cheap and bad quality items, perfume
  • old, used, smelly (in a bad way) items or something that you would not want to receive yourself

As for now, the main rule for me - treat people the way you would like to be treated :)

Comment: Thank you very much for the lovely swap! :) Lilja thanks for all the gifts she got. So herts from her too! :) Her nails are already polished, and I like the colour a lot, so it will be used again soon. The soap wrapper is beautiful! And the rooibos smells delicious! I love orange, and I guess there is something else in that too. Everything was packed lovely, and everything is very nice! Thank you for swapping with me! :)
Response: I'm so glad you liked it! :) It was a pleasure!

Comment: Karolina, I'm still looking for appropriate words - I opened your parcel, this box of wonders, yesterday night when I arrived home very late, and since then I've been trying to think of words to thank you. This was one of the best, most beautiful and thoughtful and generous parcels I've ever received in my time on swapbot. You're incredible! There's not a single thing in there I wouldn have got for myself if I had seen it somewhere! My absolute favourite are the two handmade things, the tiny book your friend made and the necklace you made - I would really like to give you a biiig hug for that, it's probably one of the most beautiful things I now possess. Thank you a million times!!!
Response: aww, this is so lovely!!! I'm so happy that you liked the parcel :)

Hello from Malaysia :)

tmarlo on May 16, 2014:

Hello, thank you very much for join us in June Birthday's swap. Today I will assign partners for this swap, are you ready lol

You will be sending a store-bought birthday card and a nicely wrapped.

You will be sending a store-bought gift to your partner.

Please send your packet via air mail.

The gift should be a profile-based surprise, something, that you think, would make your partner smile =)

However, if your partner don't write anything they would like to get in the profile, you can ask in message.

The whole package should cost minimum $5 before postage.

Make sure you send out the gift so your partner received it in time to open on their birthday.

Ready? Yep, see your partner now.
