About Christina...

Hei, I am Christina, was born in Essen (Germany), I am living in Norway now, like to read books and to write letters, love listening to Depeche Mode and other synthpop sounds, I enjoy travelling in Scandinavia and other places of the world where nature experience is in focus.

If you would like to have a German-Norwegian penfriend, give me a sign:)... I would love to read more about your life than you can write on a single little postcard! So penfriends wanted.

My favourite cards - you need some inspiration, I guess:)? I prefer landsapes and city cards. Please show me your home town, the natural sights in your region or your place in specific seasons! I love mountains, lakes and trees...show me the most impressive ones in your country or region. Generally I am more into photos than drawings.

Since I love ski jumping, cards of ski jumps and jumpers, winter life in general, are welcome, also drawn ones. Also cards showing motives of Olympic winter games, which took place in your area.

Apart from that, art cards from your local artists are also appreciated. Local artists meaning wellknown ones from your area, not your child or aunt:p.

UNESCO heritage sites are great, too, as well as maps of your area.

Multiview, Singleview? Love it both. One gives you a closer idea of the place, the other one can be so wellcomposed.

Ukraine, Poland: are there EM-cards? London: are there cards related to the most impressive Olympics ever?

If possible, please no cute animal-baby-romantic-couple cards or free & advertising cards:). Please respect this, I would like to have your postcards as a source of inspiration for my travels, not to be informed about consumer goods or get penguins from the Netherlands and icebears from Brazil ;-). Please send cards that represent your city and country, rather than ones that only match my interests and don't show the place where you are living. For me a card from the US should show the US:)...Please send your card without envelope!

When I have a new address, I love to take the challenge and search all card shops for one that you hopefully like.... the part I like most in this project. Would be great, if your card also showed that you care!:)

I am really looking forward to your postcards:) - they all make my day. Happy postcrossing!

P.S.: I said "yes" to direct swaps and made a lot of nice experiences with this, met really nice people and saw wonderful places. But recently I have had a few requests, were I have sent something and never got something in return. These people also don't answer their mails after having received their card. Would it be okay for you to write first, when you ask me for a direct swap? :)

Expired cards:

many...
