About Me

I'm a teacher and as hobby, a crafter. I live in Portugal but born in Germany. I love reading, crocheting, singing while driving and watching cartoons when I have the time. I like cats (yup, cat person) and other animals - especially forest animals. Love fairy tales... I've got a cat, Sushi.. first named Kvoth - not easy to pronounciate; then Fuji, like the mount - while scolding my little tiger, I called him sushi by mistake... so Sushi it is (he doesn't mind getting something, he is a sweet opportunist)

Favorite Music

well, I've got an eclectic music style taste. lately in my MP3 I listen to: Arcade Fire, Caro Emerald, The Walkabouts, The Nationals, TVshows intro, Icona Pop, The Pierces, Band of skulls...

Favorite Books

Comics: Asterix, Calvin & Hobbes, Mafalda, Mordillo Fantasy books: Titus of Gormenghast, The last Unicorn, The name of the wind (still unfinished), The night circus Novel: well, I'm going to freely translate this book because I don't know there is na English version "The pleasures and the shadows" by Gonzalo Torrente Ballester and some other books by him; books by Umberto Eco, Italo Calvino Fairy tales, Folk tales Short stories comic books/magazines check my profile at goodreads, please

Favorite Movies

Amelie Poulain... my favourite and then there are the cartoons... love animation!!!! Aardman - Shaun the sheep and Wallace & Gromit; Totoro; Nightmare before Christmas

especially crocheting (you may check my facebook page); but I'm a knitter, too, and I like papercrafts and beading crafts and drawing AND colouring...

I like

Comment: Oh my goodness, such a happy package!! I've already eaten TWO of the caramels (so delicious! I'm trying to save the third but really doubting I can find the strength) and you know the gummy bears made me squeal. The pencil from HARRODS (I've always wanted to go there!!), the tourist brochure ("time to be happy"... So swap appropriate!) and little travel themed tags, the "happy" necklace, the happy little gnome... You did make me smile smile smile until I thought Oh no... My package to her could NOT make her so happy... But i'll eat this last caramel and say a genuine thank you. It was lovely of you.
Response: I'm so happy you liked the items I've sent you... I was so afraid if you would enjoy it and it would make you happy... so... we're both happy! that was the purpose of the swap... yayyyyyyyyyyyy

Comment: Wow! Manuela... I expected answers to questions (which I enjoyed reading)--but sure wasn't expecting those gifts! How wonderful! I especially love those straws. Can't wait to try them! Thanks for everything :)
Response: hi... I'm so glad you liked what I've sent! I tried one straw today... please accept my advice: don't drink it with hot milk... I just did and it was a little bit too hot to enjoy the taste of chocolate... they are good! :)
