About Me

My name is Elena, I'm Mexican, 36 years old and love meeting people, other countries and other cultures. My native language is Spanish but I speak English and some Portuguese as well.

I currently have no kids. After my mom's passing in 2023, I got to keep her dog with me, she will be 10 in November 2024. She is very protective but loving and very fluffly!

I AM OBSESSED WITH ELEPHANTS.

I have 2 elephant tattoos and about 150 elephant figurines that I've been collecting for years from anywhere in the world and any material, from wood, wire, crystal, paper, fabric, etc.

About MAIL FROM MEXICO

(USA) I have noticed it takes around 6-8 weeks to receive mail from Mexico so please be patient.

(Rest of the world) I have noticed it takes around 8-10 weeks to receive mail from Mexico so please be patient.

I have no problem re sending if needed, so let me know if more than 2 months has passed and you haven't received anything.

Thank you for your patience!

Likes & Dislikes

In general, I love elephant, pandas, wolves, flowers, vintage, Christmas, colorful stuff, kawaii stuff, caligraphy, art, etc

I LOVE FOOD, Coming from Mexico, I love spicy food! I have no allergies and I am not afraid of trying anything.

In terms of colors, I am very flexible, I can do dark or pastels. There is not one color I dislike.

My favorite season is Christmas. Also, I am a Huge Fan of ANYTHING-Pumpkin spiced.

I don't enjoy:

  • Teacher/rewards, or promotions/ads stickers
  • Ad postcards
  • Kid stuff like Dora the explorer or Frozen.
  • Chamomile tea

Postcards

  • I prefer postcards sent NAKED & STAMPED UNLESS you feel you need to protect the pc like in hand made cases or if indicated in the swap, in such cases I am fine with receiving in an envelope.

I specially like:

  • Flowers

  • All Animals

  • Art

  • Literature, authors, writers, calligraphy

  • Quotes

  • Beautiful landscapes

  • Funny/Joke pcs

  • B&W photography

Wishlist

  • Postcards, pretty paper, envelopes, etc.

  • Anything beauty related, chapsticks, lipbalms, handcream, face mask, etc

  • Pocket letter goodies to decorate them, Embellishments, ephemera, die cuts, fabric, etc

  • Candy and chocolate (I specially love the soft chewy kind like starburst)

  • ANYTHING-Pumpkin spiced

  • Regional spices to cook

  • Tea/Coffee

  • Stationery

  • Stickers ( I like any kind, puffy or flat)

  • Anything traditional from anywhere, that could help me get to know different cultures.

About my poor rating

Back in December 2016, I had a lot of liver issues that kept me going back and forth from the hospital. I missed and sent late some swaps so this is the reason of my poor rating. I didn't came back to Swap-bot until October 2017 and resent just not to leave my partners empty handed but was not able to reverse the poor ratings.

Please contact me if you have not received your swap, I'd be happy to resend if needed

Comment: Wow, You definitely weren't kidding, that your mail takes close to 3 months to reach the States! Anyway, I received your swap today and thought I would get right on it and get you rated for this swap. Thanks so much for the peach tea and pairing it with the 3 ladies on a beach for summer vibes (which is long gone none here😦) and for the extra PC. Love what you sent me!
Response: I am happy it finally arrived! TY for joining this swap

The best things take time! Thanks so much again. The pocket letter is super cute.

SAHCatMom on Oct 7, 2018:

Hi Elena, ? About adding pictures to profiles: I found the format and have tried posting several pictures and gifs found on Google, but many of them will not copy :(.
I know I am using the right format, but I am wondering if the images are copyrighted or something.?? I would love some feedback on this if you know what I’m doing wrong! Thanks! Susan. Sahcatmom

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET on Apr 19, 2018:

Right now I am only doing letter swaps, and easy type 3 swaps, I was doing pocket letters BUT my last swap was a nightmare. Let me know if you want to do a private letter swap or something easy?

CraftyMommaonaBUDGET on Apr 18, 2018:

HIIIII long time no talk How are you these days?
