About Me

I am a 27-year-old Spanish girl who, like all of us, loves getting beautiful surprises in her mailbox.

I live in Madrid, and have a second home in Mallorca, where I used to live as a kid.

I ALWAYS send out my swaps. If you do not get a swap from me, and it is marked sent, please let me know before rating... I will gladly re-send. Overseas packages usually take about a week, but keep in mind that they might take much more.

I also always rate the swaps I recieve. Please do the same for me, and rate fairly when you get my swap.

Thank you!

Favorite Crafts

I love all things handmade with care, and enjoy making them too.

I like many kinds of crafts, you can check my flickr to see the things I make. Basically, jewellery out of polymer clay and beads, but also scrapbooking, some sewing, and other ^^

I love to try new things!

Favourite colors

I love bright colors, and at the moment some of my faves are lime green, bright pink, purple, bright turquoise and orange.

I'm not much of a pastel color lover (especially not baby pink and blue), but that doesn't mean I won't want to recieve anything in pastel shades...

I love

I collect bottle caps (especially, beer ones), and wine corks. If you have any, from a local brewery, and include them in a swap to me, I'll love you forever... and give you a heart, of course! ^^ Oh, and can tabs, too! ^^

I love lizards and reptiles, dragonflies, black cats, owls, ladybugs, and all starry things. I love mermaids, and all sea creatures, especially turtles, starfish and seahorses.

I love recieving handmade earrings (especially BIG ones!), fridge magnets, stickers, beads, nice-smelling bath supplies (no coconut!), bookmarks, and new recipes.

I'd love to recieve any manga/anime items from the series of Ranma 1/2, Inu-yasha, or Chobits ^^

I especially cherish handmade gifts... I love all things made with care.

I dislike

I don't especially like:

Clowns, angels, faeries and babies (I like real babies, lol, just not baby images and illustrations)

Cute kitties (love black cats, though, must be the witch in me!), or baby-ish stuff (no country style)

Too hearty and frilly stuff... valentine kind

Baby pink and baby blue

Butterflies and faeries

Golden jewellery (antiqued gold is OK)

Un-useful shelf-cramming objects and figurines

Flavours and food

I have no food allergies :)

I'm a coffee lover, not much of a tea person, but I don't mind getting tea, since I like to have it for my guests ^^

Don't like coconut, mint, or marzipan.

Love raspberry, lemon, lime, and anything sour. Love sour sweets!! ^^

I like to try different country couisines, and enjoy spicy and hot ((though not extremely hot!) recipes.

If you are sending me recipes, please try not to include many rare or difficult to find (in Europe) ingredients!

Hobbies!

Aside from crafting, I have many hobbies:

Diving(and anything sea-related), aquariums, photography (I am now the proud owner on a SLRD!), reading, cooking...

I like languages. I'm fluent in spanish and english, and can speak german and french.

I love traveling, and am lucky to have a partner who enjoys it too.

People say I have been to many places... they always seem few to me!

Counties visited: Japan, Tanzania, Cuba, Egypt, Honduras, Thailand, Morocco, USA, and most of Western-European countries. And counting! We're planning on Argentina for 2009, but not sure yet ^^

Additional info

While I respect all personal choices, I am not a religious person, and I really dislike all religious fanatisms.

I do not mind getting some religious images (any religion) which can be used in crafts, or maybe traditional or interesting religious items (especially from religions other than catholic).

For quotes swaps, please refrain from sending me Bible quotations, please.

Favorite Music

I love listening to music, there's always something playing at my place.

I'm quite eclectic in my tastes, I like to listen to a bit of everything, from opera to heavy metal. Currently I tend to listen hard rock most, though.

I also love chill-out compilations to play while studying.

Don't much like rap, hip-hop, techno, trance, house...

Flaked on...
