About Me

Hello. My name is Anna Carolina, but you can call me Carol. I’m journalist. I'm 25, married, with 3 cats, named Aurora and Maricota, and a little cat boy, named Raji. No kids. I live in Rio de Janeiro and I think it's the greatest place in the world! I love travelling, crafting, stationery, vintage projects, decoration, fashion, receive packages in the mail and things that make me go "aaahhh". I love SURPRISES and friends.

I'm starting a collection of refrigerator magnets from around the world, then I will be very very very happy if you send me one of where you live! And I recently moved back to a new apartament, then kitchen items or funny things for home are welcome! :)

** We won! Olympic Games 2016 will be in my city! **

♥ Favorites ♥

Music: My iPod has everything from RAMONEES! Also love KISS, news bands, 80’s, Brazilian Bossa Nova, Glam rock, Rock'n'roll, Punk rock, Indie…

Books: Alice in Wonderland! Lewis Carroll's! I love much, much more, I have the cheshire cat tattooed on my back.

Movies: Dirty Dancing, Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Coraline, Little Miss Sunshine, All Tim Burton movies, all animated movies and Disney Classics. Bettie Page, queen of pin ups!!!

Television: Friends, Sex and the City, The Big Bang Theory and The Tudors.

Crafts: I like things that are regional, exclusive, unique, and probably have not seen before. I love "stuff". It doesn't matter what kind, just STUFF! I like to recycle/reuse things if possible, collage and prints. I’m lerning sewing with my grandmother.

Characters: Alice in wonderland!!! Betty Boop, SpongeBob, Little Twin Stars, Care Bear, Sanrio, Disney!!

ミ☆Hey Ho Let’s Go

I'm available to private swap and I can help you to get anything from Brazil...

ミ☆Don't forget

From Brazil, the things may take anything between 15 and 30 days to arrive, so sorry! I try to compensate for delay with many extras and love in the packages. I love reading people’s profile and sending things I know they would like. Remember this before rating!!! And I have to say that portuguese is my first language, so please forgive any mistakes I could make in English, ok?

Comment: I love the envies! Thank you so much! And the little ruler is just adorable! The tape to seal the envies was missing, but then border patrol opened the envelope.. It could have fallen out then. They took the ribbon off too, that I assume you had tied around everything...I still love everything! Thank you so much! You are a great swapper!
Response: Oh no, I'm sorry for that! Everything was carefully tied with a ribbon, with other extras like papers, stickers... but the important thing is that you like the rest! You're a dear to understand this, thanks for the heart! Nice swapping with you. Hugs, Carol

Eeeeep! You're the best! And the surprise prints are adorable! I can't wait to put them up! I feel like I didn't send enough now=/! Let me know if you'd ever want to swap again! **Thank you so much!** ♥ ♥ ♥ Oh! And here are some photos of me and a few things, I'll uploading more on my flickr soon! :) http://tinypic.com/r/5zfj14/4 http://tinypic.com/r/11i1e2f/4
Response: I had a lot of fun putting this together for you! And I'm always afraid of my Americans partners don't like something, after all, you find everything you need there! I'm happy you love! Oh, the text of the shirt is a part of the Brazilian national hymn. And I love this ice cream too, I have 3 in my house, one in the bathroom, one in my makeup table and one in the kitchen! rs. Hugs, Carol

VetTechMommy on Nov 20, 2009:

Than-you for sending me a lovely Christmas RAK from the HSRG!

Melas on Nov 19, 2009:

And I will very gladly re-sent. :-) I need about two weeks time to get something together and I will notice you as soon as I send it. Acceptable? And: Would you prefer an autumn-package or, due to the new season we're heading into, a winter or christmas one? Or due to Brasil, a summer one? :-D

synchronixe on Nov 19, 2009:

No, but I guess that German post service and customs are quite busy before Christmas, so don't worry! I'll let you know as soon as it's in my mailbox! :)

PhoenixLM on Nov 19, 2009:

Your very welcome I'm glad you liked it.

evitake on Nov 6, 2009:

yaaaaaaaaaay yeah sure,good idea,but it would be better if you could set up the swap,that way i can give you a heart and a star :ppp

synchronixe on Oct 30, 2009:

Hi Carol, your package hasn't arrived yet I'll let you know as soon as I get it! You are so kind to send me a Christmas present, can't wait to receive both packages! I'm going to send out your swap tomorrow, sorry for being a day late but I absolutely wanted to get you a Berlin souvenir and I have not a single souvenir shop where I live! I went to Ku'damm today and bought you a nice little souvenir so I can make your package ready tonight and send it out tomorrow! I hope you will get it soon!

provadia on Oct 27, 2009:

Thanks Carol! Your half year anniversary is coming? I think? :D Hope to swap with you again soon! Cute Cosmetics? ^_^!

anaferraz on Oct 13, 2009:

Meu nome é Ana Claudia, eu também tenho 25 anos, não sou jornalista 'oficialmente" mas trabalho com isso também. E faço aniversário em março! Uau! Quanta coisa! hehe

anaferraz on Oct 13, 2009:

Oi Carol! Mas é claro que topo o pvt swap! Descobri você pelo flickr da Provadia, pois você mandou uma luvinha da Nara Leão que saiu da agência que eu trabalhava, hehe! Fiquei super curiosa pra saber de onde ela recebeu e ela me mostrou seu profile. O que você tem em mente? Beijo!

Banshee on Oct 8, 2009:

Oi, Carol. Tá um problemão só aqui. Sem receber cartas e minhas cartas não chegando e tendo q reenviar. O pior é q tem menina como a última q nem me contactou pra reenviar nem nada como também veio com a desculpa de eu já ter qualificações como aquela. Parece que foi o maior prazer em me dar 1. É de arrancar os cabelos de tanta raiva de pessoas irredutíveis assim. Mas enfim, não é a primeira vez q isso acontece e logo logo tudo estará resolvido. Obrigada pelas palavras, Carol. Bjão pra vc e pros filhotes tbm. =^^=
