About Cate...

*****If you don't want to read my whole profile, please send a picture of your area such as any local water (sea/lake/river etc) or beautiful natural view or city cards (buildings/bridges/transport/houses etc)*****

I'm Australian but am living in Germany for a year. Please contact me if you have my Australian address and I will give you my German address instead.

I was born in New South Wales but moved to Adelaide when I was 5, so I feel that Adelaide is my home. I moved to England with my family when I was 16 and came back 8 years later with my sister. I have a brother who is a pilot living in Australia too, my other brother is married and lives in England in the same village as my parents.

I went to university in Wales and studied Psychology. on completion of that degree however, I decided I didn't want to be a psychologist any more! Currently I am studying a Bachelor of Teaching/Arts double degree, with German as my major and English Literature as my minor. I would love to teach English as a Second Language.

I *love* travelling, and have visited several countries in Europe. I want to be the first in out family to visit Asia, South America and New Zealand - My father was the first to go to Europe and North America, my sister is the only one of us who has visited Africa.

I really enjoy drinking tea, it is so refreshing and comforting. I'd much rather share a chat over a cuppa than go out to the pub, although I do enjoy beer and am considering brewing my own.

I'm always curious about people and what they like and I like to hear about different cultures, local traditions, weather, random facts, anything really.

If you speak German, I'd appreciate you writing in German so I can practise my translating skills, but if you'd prefer to practise your English on me, go right ahead!

I really love to sing, and I have been in various choirs for over 20 years. I like to play musical instruments, but I'm not particularly good at it.

I like most postcards, but I'm particularly collecting music themed , beer and tea related cards. Please do not send ad-cards, unless they have an awesome picture on the front. Hand-made cards are welcome, But please put some effort into it and try to make it match my interests.

Tourist cards of your locale are my favourite. Bulidings, bridges, transport, sculptures - anything that makes your home stand out - Especially if your town is famous for something interesting, like brewing beer or music or any famous person.

Happy writing, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

P.S. Don't forget to include the postcard ID and the date you sent the card, and if possible, please use a pretty or interesting stamp!
