About Monika...
Hello! My name is Monika, by nickname Momo ^-^. I am a social worker currently living in Prague.
♥ My dream- visit Japan, especially Okinawa, Korea- Jeju, Taiwan and go to a trip around the world ^-^.
Hobbies - History ( I've always wanted to be a guide at castles in my country), photography, travelling, sightseeing.
For japanese PC and other fans - I love japanese rock band GLAY ♥. I'd like to collect postcards from all jap.prefectures one day. If you have a map or info about japanese prefectures and their specialities, I'd be very happy to know them!
Also I love kimonos and I would be happy to learn more about them. If you are willing to share info (from newspaper, books, etc.) or little scraps from old kimonos or yukatas about it I would be very happy. My dream is also one day to be able to wear kimono properly and learn all the things about kimono art (kitsuke). I am open to swaps or exchange letters where I can learn more about this form of art.
►If I can ask you, please don't send postard blank or with happy PC...If the postcard were your final message or biggest art/work what would you tell to people/world?
►Please don't send postcard I already have (if possible of course, I know that you can't go through my received). I scan all received cards to avoid multiples you can check in received postcards.
I like (just recommendation in case you have something in your collection):
♥ UNESCO WHS, landscapes, tourists cards with SINGLE photo/historical monuments from your country/National parks/traditional things from your country(clothes, musical instruments, well-known food or local speciality, etc).
♥ lakes/islands/ocean/sea/supercells
♥ Titanic/steampunk
♥ vintage cards, reprints of female actors from 1920-40ties,Vogue postcards
♥ onsens/ ryokan, fusama/ceramics in your country
♥ kimono, geisha/kimono motifs, different kinds of kimono/ hanfu/ hanbok/ lolita/ qipao/ao dai
♥Hummingbird/butterfly/dragonfly/turtle/caretta/jellyfish/kingfisher/squirell
...or just browse through favourites :) I simply love postcards, so I think you have nothing to fear that I don't like your postcard. For me it's mainly about exploring other countires, culture and also something about you as a member and human being.
When I was in tight spot in my life postcrossing and postcards really made my day. It's been 11 years and I don't regret it. So even if you are sad or don't feel like browsing through tons of favourites, just send something with personal message. One message matters ♥
This year my family member passed away so I know how hard is just trying to be Ok than K.O.
Please don't send:
►I don't fancy GF, selfmade, Advertisement,handmade OR printed. Please save them for someone who can appreciate them. I believe PC is about making someone happy.
Happy postcrossing
