I am a 26-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 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!

I love bright colors, and at the moment some of my faves are lime green, bright pink, purple 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 lizards and reptiles, dragonflies, black cats, owls, ladybugs, and all starry things.

I love recieving earrings (especially BIG ones!), fridge magnets, stickers, beads, nice-smelling bath supplies, bookmarks, and new recipes.

I don't especially like:

Clowns, angels, cute kitties, or baby-ish stuff (no country style)

Butterflies

Golden jewellery (antiqued gold is OK)

Un-useful shelf-cramming objects and figurines

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 contry 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!

Aside from crafting, I have many hobbies:

Diving(and anything sea-related), aquariums, photography (especially B&W), reading, cooking, horse riding...

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: Tanzania, Cuba, Egypt, Honduras, Thailand, Morocco, USA, and most of Western-European countries. And counting! Japan is next on the list, next October ^^

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...
