He has been a member for 11 months (343 days).I love postcards of distinctive people and customs---folkloric costumes or dancers, old-fashioned craftspeople, farmers, religious festivals---or breathtaking places, such as beautiful islands, mountains, or landscapes, historical towns, baroque gateways, ancient temples, or half-timber buildings, traditional architecture and art.
Pictures of leaders of countries or royalty are of interest as are pictorial regional maps, or views of castles and medieval or walled towns from the air and coats of arms/heraldic emblems or traditional mailboxes (e.g., with images of post horns).
From Finland sauna cards would be interesting or perhaps Kalevala-related.
Please do not send cards of animals, free advertising cards, or drawings. And I would love it if you write something interesting and unusual about customs, folklore, or holidays in your hometown.
I really am enjoying postcrossing! What a great idea for bringing people together around the world!
P.S. Please write your ID code number very clearly so that it will not be difficult to read and register (perhaps even in two places--because I have sometimes received cards with the number scraped off or stamped over).
Thanks very much!
P.P.S. I am very open to private swaps.
