About me & interests

UPDATE >> Sorry friends and fellow swapers from the groups! I currently can't swap internationally due to high mail fees, so i'm not taking part in any swaps. I will try to swap back as soon as money allows.

ME IN A FEW WORDS:

  • Hi! I'm Adriana Clara, but I go by Clara.
  • Brazilian and proud of being latin-american!
  • I speak Portuguese, English, Français y un ratito de lo Castellano.
  • I love snail mail and anything mail related.
  • My "kids" are furry: a female dog and a male cat.
  • Bac Degrees in Cooking School and Advertising.
  • Currently Working as a Teacher.

CURRENT INTERESTS:

  • Stuff for BUJOs (Bullet Journals) or Planners
  • Stationery: Sticker books and sheets, Rub ons, Letter Sets, Pens, Pencils and Stamps (rubber/clear/inks)
  • Books and Comic Books in English or French. (easy readers or children's)
  • Teaching aids in English or French (flashcards, games, stamps, stickers)

IMPORTANT (F.Y.I): .

Everyone, I live in northern BRAZIL. That means:

  • Mail to USA: 12-17 days depending on the State. California is even longer (dunno why).
  • Mail to Europe:17-20 days, depending on the country.
  • Mail to Australasia:20 days to 1 month sometimes less, depending on the country.
  • Christmas time:even longer, to anywhere.
  • That said, please wait a little longer, it will reach you!
  • Brazil does have a reliable postal service! It's expensive,but efficient IMO.
  • I never flake and never will!
  • If it's still too long, tell me! Mail do get lost anywhere in the world.

Recent Activity

Favorites

I'm very easy to please and not picky, really! This is a "just-to-give-you-a-hint" list on what I dig:

Smells: vanilla, hibiscus, jasmine, melon, pear, herbal, ocean/marine.

Flavours: vanilla, caramel, chocolate, coffee, cinnamon, honey, green apple, watermelon, melon, mint, pineapple, anis, fruity, coconut, peppermint.

Coffee: Brazil's favorite hot beverage and mine too! I love tasting different blends from overseas!

Colours:: rainbow, acqua, lavender, light red, and light blue.

Tea:: I only really-absolutely-deslike green tea. Prefer mild rather than strong flavors. (like: caramel, rooibos, toffee, herbal, fruity blends, etc).

Food::Healthy snacks, bars, gluten-free, dark chocolate (40-90%cocoa) and also milk chocolate! I love trying foreign candy, but not Hersheys nor peanut/peanut-butter please.

Animals:I love all! But my favs are cats, owls, foxes, bears, rabbits, penguins and dogs.
