About Me

I'm form Buenos Aires, Argentina, 50 years old, married, three kids. I have two dogs, a Schnauzer called Harold Mc Laine, and a Yorkshire terrier called Guadalupe Moreno :) as you can see, they are very special for me. I love to read, to hear music and to travel. I really love to knit and crochet, and sew some small proyects like dotees, and crazy quilting. (I do it all the time and sometimes I sell things I knit). I´m pisces... but I hate the sea, it makes me feel sick. My favourite colors are, green, brown, orange, terracota, grey, red and black. I love wild flowers like alhucema (lavender), violets, and the little flowers you can find in fields. I enjoy to smell the scents they give.

I like to wear wool socks,scarfs and all kind of ponchos. I collect small animals made of wood, I usually buy key rings, pens,mugs, necklaces, bookmarks and small bags in the cities I visit. I really love coffee, chocolates, candies, snaks.I dislike marzipan,yogurth and alcoholic drinks. I really like to take pictures.I do it all the time :)

Favorite Television

24, CSI, Desperate Housewives, Friends, Alias, Extreme Makeover, ER, Ugly Betty, Lost, Heroes, Prison Break, Lie to me, Sex and the City... and more.

Stuff I'd love to receive

Yarns. Chocolates. Coffe. Pens. Small figures made of wood. Necklaces. Fabric bags. All kind of things about knitting and crocheting like stitch makers, hand painted hooks, row counters etc. I collect small sugar bags, (that gives in the cafeterias, better if they have the name of the shop or the city).

Comment: You have a *beautiful* backyard! That wall of lush greenery is pretty much what I'd have as part of my dream home. And if I were any good at gardening. ^_^

Comment: Thank you for the details about your home and surroundings. I would love to visit Argentina, but the closest I have traveled is Mexico and the Caribbean. I would love to spend a lot of time where you live, as I dance Argentine tango and have taken some workshops here in the U.S. that were taught by a couple from Buenos Aires. The music and art where you live sounds so lovely to me. :)

I am so very happy that the bag made it to you so quickly! I have never sent a package internationally and I can't believe how quickly it made it through customs! I'm also happy that you like it! Every time I go to the craft store I look at that bag and want to buy one for myself, it's too cute! I figured someone else would probably enjoy it just as much. Plus, it was brown, one of your favorite colors! Enjoy the spring season, happy swaps!

Hola Adriana! I've received the swap on saturday 10/05/08. I was very lucky because I was at home and I could get it immediately without going to the post-office :)

Helena on Jan 29, 2008:

There! Your package for the "I Want Hearts the Honest Way" is all ready to go. I will mail it tomorrow.

Helena on Jan 8, 2008:

Hello! I'm your partner in the "I Want Hearts the Honest Way" swap and I just want to let you know I can't send your package right away. I'm leaving to go on my honeymoon tomorrow and won't have the time to get the package (already nearly finished!) in the mail before then. I'll be back on Jan 25, so I can promise I'll send the package before the deadline on Feb 1!
