About Sylvia...

Hi there,
I'm Sylvi, a 36-yrs-old self-employed academic from Bavaria, southern Germany. I have an M.A. in German Philology and Art History. I work as a teacher, translator, journalist, lector and lecturer.

Wide range of interests and hobbies: sports, literature, art, the great outdoors, music, North American Natives, myths and legends, herbalism, concerts, history, movies, travel, drawing & painting, languages, genealogy, penpalling, tea, animals, museums, (art) exhibitions, festivals...

I live in the countryside (not far from Munich), have a dog and two cats. The avatar shows my 10-yrs-old tomcat Maxi.

I'm a big ice hockey-, soccer-, Formula 1 - and Audrey Hepburn-fan.

My fave destinations are Canada, the USA, Scandinavia and Israel.

I love to collect and swap postcards (you'd never have guessed, huh?!), postage stamps and stationery.

Some new snail mail pals are also welcome!

I'll be happy about every postcard you send but if you want to make me grin like a Cheshire cat, please choose one of the following motifs:

- your hometown, village/city views
- animals (cats, raccoons, wolves, bears, seals, birds, etc.)
- landscapes, autumn sceneries
- nature in general
- art (architecture, paintings, sculptures...)
- anything that is typical of your country, region or culture
- something "cute" (kids, Hello Kitty, Snoopy, etc.) or funny
- sports stadiums and events
- ice hockey (esp. NHL), soccer
- American Natives, indigenous peoples, their arts and crafts
- Audrey Hepburn, Bud Spencer, Doris Day
- VW Bus (van - esp. T1, T2), VW Beetle (old and new), small cars
- black & white/retro/vintage
- portraits of famous literati (e.g. Goethe, Kafka, Dostoyevsky)
- "Correspondances"-cards

If you need further inspiration, have a look at my faves :)

NO PHOTOS, BLANK, ADVERTISEMENT OR FREEBIE CARDS, PLEASE! HANDMADE ONES ONLY IF YOU'RE AN ARTIST - or a kid! :)

Thank you! :)
Big hugs,
Sylvi
