About Me

Hello, I'm Zoe and I'm from York in the UK. I’m self employed, and I haven’t done any swaps in nearly 5 years because I’ve been working a crazy amount! That’s a bit less hectic now so I’m trying to remember what having a life outside of work is like🙂 I’m now officially middle aged, but have no kids or pets.

Things I like

I am interested in most things, but I particularly like old stuff and weird stuff. I like contemporary art and I'm pretty easy going, so feel free to send me odd, experimental or tasteless items.

I love all sorts of music, as long as it's good ;) I'd love to receive anything related to music, especially if you know the chords to your favorite song so that I can learn to play it (badly).

Anything bird themed generally makes me happy.

I love to read, and I’m currently re-reading a load of Terry Pratchett.

My favourite thing is to be surprised by what you choose to send me.

Things I don't like

I’m vegetarian and not keen on animal products in general ... but I’m not actually vegan so don’t worry about it too much!

Comment: Hi Zoe I received my package today and what a great surprise. Did you make the bubble wand? The painting you made is wonderful. You were so generous that I can't mention each items here, but everything was great. Hope we swap again sometime and I could get you to send to. Thanks again Pat
Response: So glad you liked it, I had fun putting it together too. Yep, I made the bubble wand :) Would be lovely to swap with you again.

Comment: Love the packaging and all the little extras! And this was a very inventive and creative approach to Zeus, using his symbols to depict him instead of a statute or drawing. I really like it, thank you.
Response: Thanks, I really enjoyed this one :) I was struck by the similarity to Thor with the symbols, but they're very similar gods.

Comment: Thank you very much! I love the stickers and the extra goodies!
Response: I'm so glad you liked them, I had trouble choosing because the owls had yellow patches on them which I was worried you wouldn't like, but in the end I decided they were cute enough to risk it :)

Hi Zoe, glad you got the parcel :) Happy Birthday to your Mum!

Thanks for the tip about where to reply ;)
Sternenfee on May 28, 2014:

Zoe you are amazing. When I saw your envie I first thought I forgot that I was in a package swap. Then I opened it and saw that it was meant as a SwaS surprise and you nearly moved me to tears. Thank you so much for sending me some joy...and I really love what you send and it means a lot to me that you did this to give me some happiness. Hugs.

Dear Zoe, It was a total delight to discover your surprise package in my pigeonhole when I went into work this morning! It absolutely made my day. All of it is wonderful -- the envie full of birds with the quotes, the pretty pen, the cards with the musical note, the tiny Paris postcard, the lovely bookmark, the photograph, the jelly mould card (fantastic! how did you ever track that one down?), the beautiful pictures of your jewellery -- I could go on and on! It was so beautifully wrapped that I almost didn't want to open it! Thank you for making me feel so cherished.
