I'm a rather newbie in the Swapping-jungle, but since I stumpled upon it I was hooked from the beginning. I just love it. Nowadays it's not just my biggest hobby, it's my lifestyle. ;-)
So what is this anyways? Do you trade your friends or what's with the site title?
No, no! But almost. ;-)
The site is called Trading Friends because you trade/swap things with friends. And if you didn't knew them you swap with, you may perhaps become good friends with them if you continue to swap regulary.
Okay, so... swapping is like trading or exchange things?
Yes! That's correct. If you're in a group, there's often monthly swaps among a lot of people. But you can have just one other person to swap with as well.
What do you swap then?
When I first started to swap, I did it mainly to get my stationary collection to grow. After that I found out that there are so many funny things that you can swap!
Nowadays I say that you can swap anything! Stationary, stickers, phonecards, keychains, stamps, coins ...etc... whatever your hobby is that fits in an envelope.
Also, there's a lot of other funny things to swap, like Friendship Books, Decos, Slams, Crams, Lyrix, Label- & Stickerbags... I could go on forever. ;-)
Here are some links to sites where you can learn more on what these different things are:
