uiltje

I live near Rotterdam with my husband. Our daughter waved us goodbye and moved out to her own place in Zwolle, 2 hours driving by car (in the Netherlands it is almost "the other side of the country" .......) Our son found a small room in Rotterdam, near to the city center. Just 25 minutes driving by bike from our home....

In June 2015 we adopted a red/white cat of 13 years old from a shelter. We let him go 5 years later. Our very black cat Harry (found on the internet) passed away 3rd October 2017. He was only 10 years old. October 2022 we adopted a striped British shorthair, born 2018. Her staff asked on the internet for a new home for her because she could not give her the attention and care she needed so much.

I deliver mail 4 days a week, of course by bike!

Together with my daughter I like to drink tea: she likes green tea, I like rooibos. Herbal and black tea are not our favourites, others are more than welcome, surprise us! After drinking I collect the bags for a very dear friend (she has a collection of > 30.000 bags)

• everything about Scandinavia, Iceland, London, Berlin (but not too touristic)
• black & white postcards (and also with a little bit of colour)
• clear stamps
• rub-ons
• tea for me (Tazo wild sweet orange, Bercoff Klember Premium Tea and Higher Living very berry are delicious)
• tea for my daughter (Nordqvist Nippon Green, Basilur White Magic, Stash green tea with fruit, Pukka Sweet Vanilla Green, any brand of green tea with grapefruit))
• tea for both of us (Ukrainian Lovare)
• everything about mail (because of my job)
• warm colours
• handmade (surprise me)
• washi tape
• chocolate (Finnish/Icelandic with liquorice...mmmm....)
• showergel/-scrub
• liquorice
• I cherish my garden more and more
• recycling package material
• seal wax and stamps. Create a single one and send it to me!
• Gotochi postcards especially mailboxes, I love them!
• B. Kliban cats

• religious items, angels
• grey and beige (it makes me sad)
• postcards with horses, or with animals with funny hats, glasses, ....
• very romantic things likes roses and pink
• herbal and black tea (also with fruit like strawberry and forest fruit), with rice, camomile. I tried chai, but I really don't like it
• I have a big box filled with sticky notes and stickers: I love them but I don't want more of them
