About Chelsea...

falo portugues, entiendo espanol, men jeg snakker ikke norsk! but I can muddle through nearly any Germanic or Romance language, if you'd like to write in your own language. If you speak Portuguese, Spanish, or Italian, please write in your language, no need to translate!

ABOUT ME (scroll down for postcard information)

I'm 20 and taking some college classes right now :(. After graduating high school, I took a year off to be an exchange student in Portugal with ASSE/Multiway. I am now fluent [or very nearly] in Portuguese.

I now live with my boyfriend. We're expecting a baby on 11 March 2010-- we don't know the gender until October 26, when I have my ultrasound appointment!
I still visit my parents and my pets: a dog, Hagrid (St. Bernard/Newfoundland/Samoyed), and a cat, Toonces (tabby & Maine Coon). I love theater, film, indie and foreign music, and learning languages. I love cities and I really love strange landmarks.

*****ABOUT POSTCARDS

de Portugal... qualquer coisa... ad-card, postal caseiro, turistico...
gosto muito de ad-cards portugueses... adoro postais da Costa Azul principalmente do Montijo e de Alcochete, tambem gosto de postais de Alcobaça/Nazaré... mas gosto de tudo!

::: I like ANY POSTCARD, as long as you WRITE MORE THAN Happy Postcrossing... if you don't write English very well, or Portuguese, write something in your own language and I'll find SOMEONE to translate it, just so I can learn something more.

SELF-MADE/HOMEMADE/HANDMADE... all welcome and encouraged (something you'd like to receive, please) Mostly I like COLORFUL, QUIRKY, graphically interesting cards, including MAP-cards!

If you send me a view card or map card, I like them from your home town/city/country/state or from some place that means a lot to you, rather than just anywhere. No matter where you're from: Please write something in your own language if you can!

-----if you have a postcard that you really like and want to send to someone who will appreciate it, but aren't sure who to send it to, because maybe it's a little odd or something, and not many people would like it... I'll appreciate it.

---> I love it when I see that people upload the cards I send!

my other accounts are shellseeuh, severneckpep, and hurricanechelsea01

To postcrossers in any of the following places who might draw my address for an official... I'm going to dance and jump up and down when I receive your card. I get excited about all cards from anywhere, but I just want you to know that you'll be making me so happy! It's not a request.
