She has been a member for 6 months (192 days).My name is Panka (as we write family names first and given names second in Hungary, just like they do in the Eastern countries), I'm 22, I work in a bookshop, in my second job I'm translating YA novels to Hungarian, I'm an avid figure skating fan, I enjoy watching abstract expressionst paintings, I wear mismatched socks and I love a good read. I've been told I'm weird.
I always loved getting postcards from different parts of the World. Up till now they came only from vacationing friends, but with postcrossing it seems to be changing quite quickly. To be honest, I like this change a lot. I have to tell you, in only these four short months PostCrossing made me a happier person. So thank you already, that you bother.
I love city views, special buildings, towers, memorials, statues, windmills, old-timer ships, natural phenomena (I'm a fan of northern lights, foggy photos, wet scenery, non-slushy rainbows and the like), dramatic and/or pretty scenery views, and most of all lighthouses.
I also like animals (in the wild I mean - squirrels and raccoons especially rock! -, but I'm not that much of a fan of overcute pets or flowers, of course, the latter is no animal whatsoever) so of course basicly you can send whatever you like - maybe with the only exception of art reproductions or hand-made cards. You see, I strongly believe in the superiority of photography over fine arts.
I like my cards stamped and written (the more you write on it, the better, and if the stamp hardly fits on it anymore, then I'll be squealing with joy), so please, spare the envelope. You may need it some other time. Also, if you can, please, write 'Hungary' on your language to the address section as well.
And really, even though I wrote a lot, and might seem demanding, anything pretty will do :)
Also, I'm always open to private swaps - well, maybe with the possible exception of the first week of every month, just before I get my paycheck.. :)
