About Petra...

Hi there!

I'm 27, female and together with my boyfriend and five goldfish I live in the capital of Holland.

I've got a degree in English and have just finished a Master of translation. Now I'm doing and educational Master and I hope to finish by the end of this year. I'm a teacher of English at a private secondary school in Amsterdam, a job which I absolutely love. I would be happy to receive any postcards to do with (language) teaching and hear about the educational system in your country.

Traveling is one of my biggest hobbies. I've just booked a flight to Cambodia, a destination I've always wanted to visit. Apart from traveling through this amazing country I will spend some time volunteering as a teacher of English in one of the many idigenous villages.

I'm a real bookworm so cards related to reading are very much welcomed and while your at it perhaps you recommend some books for me to read.

If you don't know what to write, just tell me what is on your mind, what makes you smile, you favourite recipe, your dream for the (near) future, your favourite poem anything really as long as there are some more words on the card then; Greetings from...I hope you like the card. (Do you get my drift)

Here are some suggestions for cards I would love to receive:

* Children's book illustrations; Kaj Stenvall Julia Vuoni, Moomins
* Mark Ryden
* Spiritual cards
* Animals: giraffes, panda's, (big) cats, tigers, hippo's, penguins
* UK: Edward Monkton
* Reading People
* Cards that make you happy
* J.W Waterhouse
* Gustav Klimmt
* Black and White
* Portraits (I love ethnic portraits)
* Smiling people

Thanks,

Happy Postcrossing

For more inspiration: have a look at my faves, so you can get and idea of what I like.

PS: I have two other postcrossing accounts (peetlief, cobyvlierbes) would you be so kind as to write my nickname on the card as well. This make registering easier. Thanks
