About Ann...

I live in the south east corner of England, in a small coastal town that doesn't seem to register on the Postcrossing map.

NB. I'm away from home from time to time. I make my account inactive but sometimes some cards slip through if they're a long time travelling. Don't worry, I'll register your card as soon as I return.

I love travel, learning about other countries, their cultures, history, everyday life. I love learning about people. I can't imagine being without a book to read. I enjoy gardening, good food, photography. Now that I have more time, I'm trying to go back to drawing and other more creative things.

I will be delighted with ANY card at all you care to send me if it's something you yourself love (do tell me why), but if you want some suggestions, here they are:

*Maps of any sort.
*Markets with stalls/people selling anything.
*Arches or staircases (I like the patterns they make).
*Medieval castles/fortresses or anything stone built and ancient.
*Street scenes.
*Traditional houses - interior (kitchens in particular) or exterior.
*Rural scenes - woodland/pastures/farms.
*Stained glass windows.
*Anything vintage. (Including 50s and 60s cards)
*Spring, summer autumn or winter, or all four.
*UNESCO World Heritage Sites (tell me if it is, sometimes I miss them)
*Daria Gerasimova
*Art in gereral

I'm sure there are many other possibilities I don't yet know about, so anything you send will make my day. If you still need ideas, have a look through my favourites.

I prefer cards to be stamped and written with a few words about yourself or where you live or even some local news. That way they come alive for me. However if it suits you better to send an envelope, don't worry. Like anything else, it's only a preference. I don't collect stamps but enjoy seeing interesting ones if you happen to have them.

***PS Please, real postcards not folded cards.
