in solidarity with Ukraine

Please let me know, if you think that the resend is necessary. I will certainly answer every message asap. Please remember that delays in mail delivery are to be expected.

I really don't have a use for BLANK touristic PCs, and have too many washi sapmles and sticky notes. Hate to throw away perfectly good items so PLEASE don't send them!

The list of my likes and dislikes is a bit below so if you are looking for it... just scroll down ;) .

Hello my dear friends! ♡♡♡

I live in northern Poland, near the Baltic Sea, in the countryside. I am single mum living with my son and 2 cats.

I'm a real bookworm. Also like to watch movies and TV series. I collect everything related to cats. And I LOVE creative writing. My dream is to publish a novel. Another important thing in my life is music. I cannot imagine my life without it. Unfortunately, I have no talent for singing or playing any instruments. I like crafts but am still learning.

I am very open-minded person, raised in the Christian faith but not a Christian. I'm usually pretty busy, but try to enjoy my free time and life. Like to laugh, talk and write, but I am also rather an introvert.

As for postcards... It is always nice to get fully written card. Please, write down your place, date and the current weather, if it isn't a problem. A little below is the list of kinds of postcards I collect.

I usually listen to alternative music (rock, metal). I LOVE music. Can't live without it.

Some of my favorites: Imagine Dragons, Hunter, Twenty One Pilots, Linkin Park, Evanescence, Papa Roach, Call Me Karizma, Aerosmith ...

but I also enjoy classical music

I love books! My favorite genre is fantasy. But I also read romances and thrillers (and sometimes other genres too ;) )

Some of my favorite authors: Walter Moers, Diana Wynne Jones, Holly Black, Anne Rice, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Henryk Sienkiewicz, Katarzyna Berenika Miszczuk, Leigh Bardugo, J. Bree, ...

I love saga about Harry Potter. My passion for books began in large part thanks to these amazing books.

There are so many many movies which I could just watch over and over again ;) I'll try to write down few of them...

The Lion King, The Terminal, Sin City, Dirty Dancing (also Dirty Dancing 2), Life of Brian, Singin' in the rain, Matrix, Star Wars, Girl, Interrupted, Pitch Perfect ...

Just some of them:

The Walking Dead, Lucifer, Ultraviolet, Rick and Morty, Supernatural, Disenchantment, The Walking Dead, ...

How did I get here...

I'm a fan of Postcrossing and swapping, so the fate brought me here... the fate which is often also called 'Google'.

Swaps

I know that writing on my profile that I always send swaps on time is just empty words and that many people who don't do this also have this information. I think my ratings show my honesty enough ;). I try to put my heart into what I am sending. Often times, giving someone a pleasant surprise is a better feeling than receiving it yourself.

MY POSTCARD COLLECTIONS:

Please don't send me blank touristic cards. Written (written and stamped) are fine but I don't have a use for the blank ones. Thank you!

If you don't know what to write... here are some PROMPTS:

• Something about the postcard you are sending. What does it show? Where did you get it? Do you like it?

• Tell me something about your pets.

• Write something about the music you like or the movie you've recently seen.

• Quote (with the author).

• Life is hard and sad enough so if you brighten up my day with a joke (I like puns) or a funny anecdote I'll be grateful.

• Tell me something about your dreams.

• How's the weather?

I am only asking for no politics, rudeness or religious matters. Postcards are to make me happy, not irritate me.

CRAFTS

I am still learning and testing new crafts and techniques. I like creating envelopes, postcards, mail art, ATCs...

If you have any spare die cuts, paper napkins or pages from old books, I will gladly find a use for them. Nice pieces of paper, colorful newspaper clippings, fragments of maps are also welcome. I use stickers, but not the motivational ones (for kids). Preferably flat.
