Marqueaux

My name is Marco, I'm living in Hänigsen (Lower Saxony in Northern Germany), I'm working as an employee at a health insurance fund in Hannover.

I like music (for example Depeche Mode, Kraftwerk, Mylène Farmer, Madness, Schiller, Simple Minds, U2, Mike Oldfield, Katy Perry, Ooomph!, Max Raabe, Classics like Mozart, Brahms, Bach, Tschaikowsky and Beethoven, music from the eighties), reading books (my currently favorites are "Die Deutschstunde" by Siegfried Lenz, "Harry Potter" by Joanne K. Rowling, "Night watch" by Sergei Vasilievich Lukyanenko and "War and peace" + "Anna Karenina" by Leo Tolstoy.

I'm interested in history, books, photos, architecture, painting and films. I like biking, watching TV, my computer, cooking and eating (unfortunately, sometimes too much). ^^

I don't like handmade postcards. Don't send me handmade postcards. Please!!! ^^

Please do not stick a stamp on the front of the postcard! I think that ruined the whole picture.
