About Me

I have been a member of PostCrossing for some time now, and have been looking for new ways to connect through 'snail mail'.

This seems like a perfect fit!

I love my postcards to be stamped and written on, without envelopes (naked). A blank card is a dead card. I love the stamps, and it is the stories that bring them to life!

Favorite Books

My favourite genre is definitely fantasy, with an historical epic thrown in every now and then for good measure!

My favourite author is Juliet Marillier, who writes earthy fantasy with a good dose of gaelic lore in it.

Favorite Postcards

I love all sorts of postcards... Here are some ideas: :-)

  • UNESCO World Heritage sites http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/
  • Historical or ancient scenes/sites
  • Whimsical, mystical, faerie, fae (especially unicorns!)
  • Nursing
  • Iconic scenes/buildings
  • Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit
  • Cityscapes
  • Books and crafts, flower arrangements
  • Space/the universe (especially the moon)
  • Coffee, wine
  • Castles
  • Stained-glass windows (especially non-religious ones)
  • Buddhas
  • Rain, storms, and/or umbrellas
  • Sunrises/sunsets
  • Victoriana/vintage
  • Reading women
  • The art of Victor Nizovtsev (http://www.mcbridegallery.com/nizovtsev.html)
  • The paintings of Leonid Afremov (http://afremov.com/home.php)
  • The art of Oleg Shuplyak (http://www.opticalspy.com/oleg-shuplyak-gallery.html)
  • The art of Josephine Wall (http://www.josephinewall.co.uk/art_gallery.html)

All the cards I have received are displayed on my Flickr page (link above).

Comment: Thank you for the wonderful Aboriginal postcard. I always wanted to visit Australia. When I was young I had no money, now that I could afford my health is bad. So I have to use the cards to "travel". Danke!
