About Me

My name is Soledad, I'm Spanish and I've been penpalling for over 20 years and swapping for almost 15 (fb's, slams, decos, lyrix, viewcards, stationery and some more things).

Some random facts about me:

  • I'm superstitious. Some things give me bad luck and I feel I have to rid of them.

  • I'm afraid of spiders (big ones, not the long legged)

  • I write short stories which I usually left unfinished.

  • I can't swim.

  • Apart of Spanish, I speak English and French. I tried German but it defeated me. Now I want to learn Japanese.

  • I'm quite useless at crafts. I only make some decos, slam covers and things like that. However, I've tried some ATCs and I quite like it :) I need to make a lot more before I dare to join a swap, though.

Things I like

Fantasy, books, music, movies, writing, tea, incense, chocolate, stationery, history, languages, pens, art, Victoria Francés, Luis Royo, Yoshitaka Amano, Kukuxumusu, Amy Brown, Emily the Strange, Harry Potter, manga, yaoi (esp. Youka Nitta, Mika Sadahiro, Kazuma Kodaka, Shimizu Yuki), cats, perfumes, cheap jewelry...

yaoi

Favourite scents: lilacs, musk, apple, evergreen, cinnamon.

Favourite colours: dark red, purple, black.

Favourite flavours: cherry, apple, strawberry, watermelon, capuccino, tiramisu, blackberry, amaretto, marzipan.

Favourite animals: cats, bats and dragons.

Favorite Books

J.R.R. Tolkien, Anne Rice, Neil Gaiman, Paul Auster, Nabokov, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde, E. A. Poe, Stephen King, Terry Pratchett

Wishlist

  • confetti

  • glitter

  • gel pens (any colour excep silver, gold or yellow - marble coloured wanted, I can't find them here), fountain pens or any funny ink pen

  • rubberstamps

  • incense (sticks, cones, holders)

  • scented candles and oils (especially Colony products)

  • tea bags (black tea, fruit/spicy flavoured... anything is welcome, I love trying new ones)

  • tea infusers/balls

  • hair accessories (hair pins, clips, bands, barrettes, etc)

  • perfume samples (like the ones you can find in any magazine)

  • flavoured lip balm

  • small note books and diaries

  • chocolate

  • muesli bars

  • cute stickers

  • hole punchers

  • stationery sets

  • bookmarks (handmade also welcome)

  • candies (except chewing gum)

  • snacks (especially nuts and crisps)

  • necklaces (goth style, flowers, butterflies,.. but nothing too big or ethnic, please)

  • anything on Victoria Francés (stationery, calendars, t-shirts, cards, etc)

Victoria Francés

Things I don't like

  • Disney stuff (some classic movies are ok, though)

  • Religious or patriotic stuff...

    And that's all I think, I'm not allergic and I'm not too picky :) I love receiving things from different countries, especially if they're things I can't get here.

Postcards

I have many postcards for trade, especially from European cities, so if you want some private swap, just PM me :)

I'm especially looking for:

  • Postcards from United Kingdom and Ireland

  • Gothic/Romanic cathedrals and churches

  • Medieval castles or ruins

  • Art cards

  • Forests, natural parks, rivers, lakes and waterfalls.

  • Fantasy themed cards, especially by Luis Royo, Victoria Francés, Brian Froud or Amy Brown.

Hi Sibila!

Just got back online today after being offline for about 3 weeks due to illnesses.

I sent your package for "Red and fruity" candyswap a while ago but was only able to mark it sent now.

I hope the package finds you well and you´ll like the content aswell :)

So sorry about this.

I just realized that you sent me "Hornimans" brand teas. That is so hilarious! I will have to save the bags when I drink them.
