About Andrea...

Hello ^_^.

Thanks in advance for sending me a postcard and for taking the effort to read my profile :).

I am Dutch woman. 8 years ago I decided to follow my heart by moving to Taiwan. In 2009 I got married in Taiwan with the love of my life after a long battle for a better life. I also have a 7-years old daughter and she's my little sunshine.
After spending 7 years in Taiwan we decided to build up a new life in Europe and in January 2011 we left Taiwan for beautiful Valencia in Spain in order to be able to move to The Netherlands at a later time.

In July 2011 we have settled down in The Netherlands, back to my roots, starting all over again. It's exciting, scary and a big challenge at the same time, but so far so good.

Lately I have started collecting the following kind of cards:

- Correspondances
- Limoon
- Misstigri and other similar artists (www.gnautics.com)
- Jetoy
- Papaya Art
- Gor Juss
- Inkognito
- Paperchase postcards
- Nouvelle Images (those cards with many pictures, topic related)

I also like to receive tourist postcards, showing views or scenery places of the area where you are living and map cards

Please don't send me AD card(free commercial cards), art cards, or postcards with animals if possible....I don't like most of them.

I love beautiful and special stamps. It would be nice if you can stick a beautiful stamp or several stamps on the card, but please do NOT put your postcard in an envelope. Try to write something on the card. I like to receive my postcards fully written, it's like the cherry on the cake ^_^.

*Finnish people...I like Kaj Stenvall cards a lot. I try to collect his work on postcards. Please check my website for the cards I do have already. Maybe you can help me with my collection :).

*People from the USA.... I try to collect viewcards and mapcards from every state in the USA. Please check my website for my collection so far if you want to help me :).

I appreciate every card I find in my mailbox, so don't worry if you can't find anything from my wishlist, because it's only a preference.

I had to say good-bye to my number 1 ranking (Postcrosser) in Taiwan and now I am trying to get used to write Dutch ID's on my postcards. It's time to continue the fun of sharing postcards from the other side of the world :). I'm looking forward to find your postcard in my mailbox :).
