About Me

Hi there!

I'm Lindsey, 25 years old, from The Netherlands. Two years ago I graduated, so now I'm a teacher on a primary school. I am also the mother of a beautiful German shepherd dog.

Sad news: my dear dog died on 20 January 2021. My heart is broken. I miss him terribly.

In my spare time I take a lot of photos. Not selfies, but I like to photograph landscapes and sunsets. I love nature: flowers, trees and even clouds! I've an Instagram account where I share photos.

I also love to travel! If traveling was free you'd never see me again. I've already been to London, Dublin, Rome, Krakow and some other places. I love meeting new countries and cultures. Swap-bot is also an opportunity for me to learn about other countries. Places / Countries that are now at the top of my travel list are:

  • Edinburgh

  • Copenhagen

  • Australia

  • New Zealand

I love Bullet Journaling and being creative. Recently I started to embroider!

Other hobbies: Geocaching, baking, reading, horse riding, walking, watch television/Netflix

Favorite Books

I love reading! Especially Young Adult books. My favorite books are:

  • Pride and Prejudice

  • Harry Potter

  • The books of Sarah J Maas (Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses)

  • Game of Thrones (Yes, I have read the books!)

  • Lockwood & Co

  • Outlander

Favorite Movies

I'm Netflix-addicted. My favourite series are: * La Casa de Papel

  • Sabrina The Teenage Witch

  • The Alienist

  • Sense8

  • Modern Family (Always makes me laugh)

  • Dicte

  • The Musketeers (BBC version)

  • Marseille

  • Black Orphan

  • Vera (The detective)

  • Sherlock (BBC Version) (I'm Sherlocked)

Series are the BEST, but I also love some movies: * Pride and Prejudice. That one with Keira Knightley. * HARRY POTTER

Likes

I would like to learn more about other countries and cultures. So I would love to receive mail that includes a little story, something about yourself or just a short sentence in your native language!

About other things I love:

*My favorite colour is yellow. 'Sunset-yellow' actually. Do you know what I mean? Hahaha

*I'm totally into the galaxy theme and the 'world/travel' theme. But I'm also into leaves and planets (botanical/nature theme).

*I'm also in love with animals: red pandas, dogs, horses AND unicorns!! Yes, that is an animal.

*I like stickers and washitape.

But actually.. I will like most things I could use in my Bullet Journal! I love surprises!

Postcards

I like 'naked' postcards (not in an envelope) the most. But it's also okay if it's in an envelope (I do actually love Christmas cards that are in a envelope!).

I would love to receive postcards that display:

  • your town/area (or some other place in de the world)

  • animals like red pandas, horses, dogs, wolves and foxes. (no cats please)

  • nature (forest/mountains/northern light/sunset)

  • greetings from... cards

  • cards with bright, vivid colours

  • yellow

  • fantasy

  • galaxy theme

  • books

  • history

  • cards for my birthday (in June)

  • castles

  • mermaids

  • fairies

  • Harry Potter

I also like to be surprised!

And...

I don't like cats. They don't like me either. Sorry haha!

And I would prefer not to receive religious things.

Comment: Thank you for the cool postcard from Eindhoven. I briefly was there catching a plane back to Bulgaria while I was returning from Groningen where I was studying. Someday I'll go back to properly sightsee the city :)

Comment: 19:53 and it's 23.8 Warm but I like it. Things have picked up. We have Nissi Market in Imerovigli. We have work this year. We are still wearing masks in public places. My rose bushes are ending their blooming period. They were lovely and I shared many of them. Thank you for this pretty postcard and it's postage stamps.

Comment: What an amazing lighthouse postcard! Thank you so much! BTW... I've seen plenty of lighthouses on my travels. You should try to visit some too (if possible). It's fun to visit the insides too and climb up high for the view!

Comment: Thank you for the lovely story and postcard. It takes so much courage to travel alone, but it is more than worth it. I totally agree with you. Every year I go on a trip to the UK on my own - my little escape from the everyday. And now have a nice evening.
Response: Thank you for your message and the heart. I love the UK too! Hopefully we can travel (safely) again soon. Happy swapping

Comment: Hello Lindsey, thank you so much for the beautiful fox card. I love it! I never saw a fox in the wild, i hope i will one day. Maybe i have to also go to France for a vacation. :-) What is your primary school class called this year? Have a wonderful day and stay safe!
Response: Once I was photographing a deer in France. When I zoomed in on the photo, I saw something next to the deer. It turned out that it was a fox sitting next to it! I still find it a special moment. I wish for you that one day you will see foxes in the wild. This year, my class officially has no name. Many children still call it 'The Foxes'. Sometimes we call my class 'the superheroes'. Thank you for the rating and happy swapping! <3

โ€œThanks,โ€ I said. Creepy, creepy, creepy. I didnโ€™t add that he smelled like meat. Not that I could. Apparently, choking helped me keep my mouth shut and mind my manners.

Book quote, September

"My stomach broke into pieces and spun like a kaleidoscope. Dimly I saw my hand reaching toward it, lifting it to my nose. Cheap ink and old paper. It felt hot, but my arms prickled with goosebumps. I ripped it open."
