I'm a portuguese Law Student (hopefully not for too long)! I'm 23 year-old girl with a wonderful boyfriend!!

 

As I've been asked a few times for some swaps to tell what I like here's some guidelines!!

 

First of all, let me ask you all that if possible please send real stamps in the packages instead of that printed stamps the PostOffice always try to sell us... I sort of collect stamps and I have a friend who collects them seriously so I'm always happy when a package arrives here with real stamps on! :)

 

Oh, I have a new fact to add here... I'm collecting everything cow related I can find to fill up the biggest box I can use to give to a friend at her birthday (in November) and it's my aim to give her the most cow-filled box she has ever seen, so if you're planning on sending me any surprise, please have this in mind! Thanks!

 

HANDMADE: anything! I always get amazed by what I get from people!! :)

 

CRAFTS: I love PAPER and everything related with that!! I love to create cards and so for that I always love to use:

- ribbons

- stamps (which I don't find very often around here)

- ink pads (I'm thinking about getting a gold one and maybe also a silver)

- corner punches

- metalic things to use with paper

- rub ons

- collage items

- stickers

 

COLORS: black, blue (navy and aqua, mainly!), red, white, silver... but it's ok any other colour!! ok... maybe not that much with pink!!

 

FOOD: when it comes to food, I'm picky, but I love Coca-Cola Light and Pizza! I love black tea and sometimes melissa... not much... altough sometimes I'm willing to try some new weird stuff (and sometimes I even got lucky enough to like it!)! I love chocolate, but who doesn't? :) I love raspberry flavoured stuff (like my new chocolate find). Orange cake is also a must! Oh gosh... and then I wanna get thinner liking this things?! LOL Oh... I hate vanilla!!

 

PAINTING: I love Mucha! But I also enjoy Picasso, Andy Wahrol (and some other pop artists)! But Art Noveau is what I really love the most! And I also love Pre-Raphael art, tottally due to my interest about Arthurian Legends! I adore Frida!! Her work is great and I just love her as well!!

 

GENERAL ITEMS: I love Arthurian Legends, Celts and Medieval times. Also I love tiles! And travelling to beautiful cities!! (I know I won't be able to travel to every place in the world so while swapping I won't mind - reads: I'd love - to receive something about the place you live in!)

 

MUSIC: I love heavy-metal! That's really my thing! Metallica is what drives me wild! :) But I actually hear just about anything from classical to the brand new hits!

 

I'm getting into the vintage style... but I don't usually get to find vintage or retro things around here, so I will have to settle for what I get online!

 

I love reading altough I have not much spare time to do so... my favourite writer is Eça de Queirós, who was one of the greates portuguese writers of all times!! I also love Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley!

 

Oh... just a little last thig... if you're a swap buddy swapping with me and want to give me a little something and don't know what... empty matchboxes would be great!! I'm collecting them for a 2008 Xmas project (yep... I'll need a few and so I'm starting early!!)!!

 

I'm now a member of Postcrossing!!

 

DISLIKES:

I hate butterflies!!

Testimonials

I met Teresa on the 5 things group and have really enjoy every minute of it. It's odd to rate someone based on their on-line personality, but I think it's the most honest. Teresa has shown to be extremely generous and flexible . She is a talented artist and I'm glad to have her friendship
