The final envelope from my Swapbot adventure arrived. Not quite sure if I will enter another Swapbot swapthing though. There is this special lingo I don't quite grasp. I have seemed to understand everything wrong, even after three years in the UK and a college degree. Well anyway, after I ticked the box I never received my mail, I got a curious respond. I should have asked for a resend instead of ticking the box. And even more curious is, the date I ticked that boxthing was just a few weeks ago, and turned out the envelope was already turned back to sender at that time........ US postoffice uses cool stamps though to make that quite clear! Postage rate was also curious to me. Did the sender really think local rates applied in sending an envelope to the Netherlands from the US? Well, it's all a mystery to me. But then again, now I received two envelopes, since she has put her returned envelope just in another envelope. Even more mail this way :-)
Inside the envelope: two Hello Kitty playing cards, a used stamp, a tiny picture and two post-it papers.

Swapbot
This is what I have received from my first swapbot attempt. All the way from New Zealand a red envelope with some pink papers. Unfortunately there was no note in the envelope. So I know nothing about the person who sent me this. But fun receiving anyway. I was supposed to receive two swapbot envelopes. The other one is yet to come or will never arrive. Who knows.
My entries were fortunately all received in good order (Although I totally misunderstood the challenge). My American receiver was very happy and excited! The dutch one was a bit stroppy that I misunderstood the challenge and wouldn't rate me therefore. Pity.
