Collecting

I collect almost everything, but mainly (as my house would never have enough space) stamps, postcards, fridge magnets, phonecards, coasters, coins, Hello Kitty and kawaii stuff ....

Favorite Books

Sci- Fi, Horror and Ghost Tales, Detective Stories, some Fantasy and many more

Alison Lurie, Philip K. Dick, Jane Austen, Henry James, Anita Brookner, Carmen M. Gaite, Javier Marias, Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers

About Me

I am Carmen from Spain. I like travelling and learning from people all over the world, different ways of living, landscapes, food, everything.

I also love kawaii things (specially Hello Kitty) and chocolates ( I got a very sweet tooth by the way)

I am not a crafty person, though I love crafts I am simply not good at them, but sometimes I make envelopes or matchbook notepads (always papercrafts)

I am also in postcrossing (I am carmenhat there) and in postcrossing forum (aquelarre)

I am very interested in food and I love going out for eating and trying new tastes ( I got a thing for Japanese food by the way)

I enjoy coffee (specially flavoured one) and teas but I am not very keen on herbal teas (no mint for me, please)

I don´t use make-up, just lip-balms.

I like

  • Kawaii of any kind (specially Hello Kitty)
  • Moomins
  • Amigurumis
  • Stamps. Please use them when possible
  • Magnets
  • Postcards (map, food, kawaii)
  • Flavoured coffee and tea
  • Cute stationery
  • Chocolates and sweets

I dislike

  • Mint (of any kind: sweets, tea, etc)
  • Marzipan
  • Alcohol flavoured sweets or chocolates
