Hi! My name is Erika, I'm 21, and I live in Mexico. I'm a Psychology student.
I love reading and going to the movies with friends. I'm an indoors person, really. Crowds make me a little bit anxious.
Food is my weakness. I love making it, watching it and eating it. Really, it's an art!
Last, if I join a swap is because I already bought what I'll be sending, and I wouldn't join if I did not plan on sending what I'm supposed to.
I'm not sure how fast my country mailing service is, but I can assure you you'll get your package. If you are overseas, please be patient, it may take some time. Contact me if you have any questions!
If you want to get an idea of the kind of things I send, you can check the url up there labeled 'What I've Sent' (previously labeled 'My Postcards'). There I upload everything I've sent, as soon as I put them on the mail. I also write a little bit about each item that I send, like little details about them.
Feel free to check them out, maybe you like something and we can arrange a Private Swap.
But, if your on an ongoing swap with me, and I've already marked 'sent', I wouldn't recommend you to check it, unless you want to spoil the surprise :P
Since I'm an International Swapper, I mostly choose Postcard Swaps (due to mailing costs).
I kind of prefer reciving store-bought postcards (and I also send store-bought postcards), yet I don't have a preference when it comes to Envelope - No envelope.
You can send them anyway you want it. Even tho I prefer them sent naked if you think an envelope is needed, it's fine by me. I'm not picky :)
I'll check my swap partners' profile to see if they have any special requirements (unwritten, naked postcards, envelopes) before I send them.
When it comes to themes I like on a postcard, anything goes for me. Animals, cartoons, weird things, flowers, people, places, pagan/wiccan, buldings, jokes, writting! I just like getting them, it makes me happy :)
Some random likes: mushrooms, coffee, fairies, anime, all the berries, rain, supernatural stuff, wrestling, fairy tales, anything London related, history, yaoi/slash, superheroes, greek mythology... and that's it for now.
I'm now entering the Tea kind of swaps. I don't have any specific preferences, really, but I do like sweet tasting things. I'm open to trying new things, so anything you decide to send me is fine!
Guess I'll update this as I get more experienced about teas! :)
I'm a sucker for 'Supernatural', 'The Mighty Boosh', and 'House MD'. I love watching shows that are about something, not just relationships...
I cringe to the sight of 'Grey's Anatomy', 'Dawson's Creek', 'One Tree Hill' and '90210'. Ugh! I hate drama and specially teenage drama!
On reality shows I have a divided opinion. I like some... I hate many. I like 'Project Runway', 'Britains Got Talent', 'American Idol' (the auditions, the rest is a bit boring to me), 'The amaizing race' and some others I don't remember right now.
I don't really watch that much TV. I mostly buy what I want to see on DVD and watch it calmly.
Documentaries, about animals, religion, history, and mysteries, I do love. I'm not really into all that science stuff... (genetics, the human body, medical procedures, the weather...).
Oh, and I loved Thundercats when I was little. I still like it now :P
Since I was in kindergarden I have been in love with Teal (blue and green mixed together). It's so beautiful! I remember I loved that single crayon at school... It makes me think about the sea and lakes and rain and many other beautiful things.
I also like Grey and Silver.
*Wolves
*Owls
*Ornithorhynchus
*Hamsters
*Crows
*Polar bears
*Coyotes
*Bats
I don't like felines all that much, nor most of the Savanna Fauna.
Well, this is a hard one.
I don't have a established music genre that I like, I'm very ecclectic.
Some I do like:
-Classical music (Vivaldi, Tchaikovsky...).
-Oldies (Donna Summer, Bee Gees, The Beatles, KC & the Sunshine Band, Kenny Rogers...).
-Rock (Journey, Kansas, Scorpions...)
And many many others.
I love fantasy books. Harry Potter, LOTR, the 'His Dark Materials' trilogy.
Also, I enjoy all kinds of books about mythology (Greek, mostly) and fairytales.
I'm such a big fan of Stephen King.
Last, I like reading comics and mangas.

I'd definitely love to swap with you again! There really aren't any good postcards of where I live, but I have tons from all over Europe. You could pick almost any country and I could send you one, especially if it was from somewhere like Paris, London, or anywhere in Italy...I have loads of those. And of course we could do letters too if you wanted! :D

I just read about your hamster. My daughter has a hamster named Willhemenia who is almost 4 years old now, so we know the time is limited.
