About Susanne...

Hi,

My name is Susanne, I'm 33. I live with my boyfriend and our two cats in an apartment building in Amstelveen, just south of Amsterdam, the capital of The Netherlands.

Every week I put in 36 hours at the office and most of the weeks I also spend about 20 hours with Scouting. I used to be a troop leader, but nowadays I mainly work with troop leaders. I am a trainer now and get to show the next generation the ropes.

I love sending and receiving mail! When I was younger I used to have serious pen pals in different countries with whom I swapped thoughts on anything happening in a young girl's life.

My boyfriend and I are considering either Croatia or the Baltic countries for our three week summer holiday in June 2012. If you live in Croatia, Estonia, Latvia or Lithuania or if you have been there, please tell me (or show me with a card) what are the best things to do and most interesting sites to see.

If you live somewhere else and believe your country or city is a much better choice for our holiday than the Baltics or Croatia, don't hesitate to tell me why!

To make me a happy postcrosser I would love for you to write me a postcard or greeting card with a picture of something on this list.

- Something to do with Scouting
- Cute cartoons (Winnie the Pooh, Disney characters, Holly Hobbit, Hello Kitty, Miffy (Nijntje) or any cute character from your country)
- Inge Löök's old ladies
- Something pink (I'm way too old for it, but I love pink!)
- Candy
- TV series 'Gilmore Girls' or 'The Big Bang Theory'
- Birthday cards (in March)
- Christmas cards (all year round)
- Anything you want to show me (your town, your hobby, your favorite places, people or objects)

My boyfriend is a car lover of 30 years old who restored an old Fiat 124 Spider from 1974 as a 17 year old and still drives it as a hobby. He is a voluntary fire fighter in our town. He works full time as a service advisor (not salesman!) at BMW. He loves to receive cards, but he has a severe case of writer's block when it comes to writing chit-chat to strangers. :o)

His name is Willem Dekkers. If you like what I wrote about him and want to send him a card, use our adress and his name.
To make my boyfriend happy you can send postcards of things on this list. I will log all cards he receives.

- Classic Fiats and classic Ferraris
- Oldtimers
- BMWs
- Cars from your country
- Fire
- Firemen/the Fire Department (both real and cartoon)

Please remember to date your card.

Happy postcrossing!

Susanne
