About Marta...

I am 26 years old and I come from Poland. I moved to Switzerland in September 2009. I'm learning German, so if you speak it -- use it and help me improve my skills :D!

I love books, although I don't read as much as I used to. I enjoy cooking & baking (my kitchen bookshelf grows really fast, thanks to my lovely Amazon ♥).

These are types of postcards I like the most:
- landscapes, city views (skyscrapers, bridges), especially those taken from non-touristic, typical angle :),
- nature (sunsets, water),
- food (especially typical of your country, food markets; coffee, spices, chocolate),
- black & white photos,
- retro reprints (like ads from 50s-60s),
- Nouvelles Images

If you're from Russia: I'd love to receive a card with Cheburashka ♥!

Jeśli jesteś z Polski: pomożesz mi uzupełnić kolekcję kartek ze zdjęciami z PRL-u wydanych przez Art Nuvo?

Ich habe 83 deutschen Postkarten und 0 (NULL!!) mit dem Schloss Neuschwanstein! Bist Du aus Deutschland? Könntest Du mir solche Postkarte schicken?

Do you know Corgis?

You'll make me extremely happy with a postcard with these cuties!

Don't send me, please:
- multiviews,
- ad/handmade/selfprint cards,
- Christmas/Easter cards,
- other cards related to religion or politics.
PLEASE don't send cards from countries other than your original ID (e.g. when you're on holidays).

I keep all my sent/received scans here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/heksita/collections/ . Take a look if you want to be sure you're not sending me a double (I participate in many tags and round robins, so cards from postcrossing.com are not the only one I have).

I appreciate all cards I find in my mailbox, but if you live in a less popular or more exotic country I'd love to receive a landscape or a city view rather than flowers, cats or other neutral photos -- show me how your neighborhood looks like!

If you still don't know what to send, look at my favorites. I prefer stamped and handwritten cards (the more stamps, the better :D). You may write a sentence or two in your native language too.

And last request: don't upload the scan. I always scan cards I receive and I (almost) always delete the sender's scan. I just think that a card after its journey looks better, it has a story to tell. So don't be mad at me if you see your scan disappeared from your gallery. I'm probably in the middle of digitizing your card, it'll appear again sooner or later :).

Have a great day!
