Meet Deb

Name: Deb

Age: (approx if you’re not comfortable) 37 

Country: England

I collect: books, stamps, postcards, knickknacks like green-man wall plaques

My favourite colour is:  Green or turquoise

Please don’t send me:  food

My hobbies/interests are:  spiritual growth (new age, hippy, buddhism, druid type stuff), reading, writing, postcrossing, writing letters, baking

I like to write letters about:  life 

25 words or less, tell us about your personality:  I love learning, and always trying new projects, I like exploring new things and new places.  I'm curious and try very hard not to be too nosy but it's impossible.  I like quiet peaceful times rather than loud events.  

I am obsessed with:   travelling, real estate prices on both sides of the Atlantic, food (I have sensitivities/allergies)

I can’t stand:  bigotry, unfairness (which is naive of me I know), racism, hate-mongering, 

I love to make:  I love to bake. 

I really don’t like:  being allergic to spring (pollen)

Anything extra?  I am married, have a daughter, a cat and two rats (by choice!).  I seem to be allergic to the rats which is disappointing.  I am the "hippie peace freak" of my family.  I am a spiritual packrat.  I work in microbiology as a lab assistant.  

I am not the least bit squeamish.   

A few words on the kind of pal I'm looking for:  I'm looking for a penpal who is open minded, accepting of others and their ways, and writes long letters, short letters, and postcards.  Variety is the spice of life!  

***This person is not a member of swapbot and is not interested in swaps. Just finding a penpal.

Please email her if you are interested debbi.lewis@gmail.com

Anything extra?

I would like to make pen pals who are into the same things I am. It's nice to have something in common, and I would rather feel like we are connecting, and not just writing because we don't want the other person to feel bad..

My hobbies/interests are: Twilight, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, Beautiful Creatures, LOTR (pretty much any good book that has been made into a movie; I love reading!), crocheting, video games (WoW, Skyrim, Final Fantasy, Diablo III), animal lover, sewing, movies, concerts (love country, rock, and contemporary Christian music).

I like to write letters about: My life and what is going on. I write to a pen pal the same way some people write in a diary; honest and real. I love to share details about the ups and downs of life. Sharing about our pets, children, and family/friends is fun!

As I said before, I am Christian, and I love my faith, as well as my church family, HOWEVER, I will respect you and your beliefs. I will not shove mine down your throat, and I will not push things on to you. If you want to know anything (about me, my faith, or whatever), just ask...I'll tell you! Also, I"m not sure where this fits in above, but I love pen pal booklets and items (FBs, FS, LB, SB, decos, slams, xslips, etc). I will swap these anytime!

I am/am not interested in private swaps I definately am!

A few words on the kind of pal I'm looking for: As I said previously, I am looking for someone who simply wants a true friendship via snail mail. It's great to find someone with some similar interests, but I also want more...that is what making friends is all about!
