About Keijo...

You can send any kind of postcard with a good taste but it can be tasteless as well i.e. postcard with a twist. If you give your return information I will send a card in return - please write your address in cleartext.

You can surprise me... But you may read about myself and my interests below or look at my favourites on the Postcards Wall, if you want more personal choice. Website points to my Facebook album for return cards etc. that are not here in Postcrossing site itself.

I am single male, 40 years old. Working in information technology or telecommunications industry. More important hobbies include travel, movies, reading (incl. comics), music and winter swimming. Fan of black humour, sarcasm, irony and witty quotes. Interested in popular culture in general. Special interest in space technology.
