About Sara...

***NOTE: Many of my postcards are coming to me destroyed because of the post office sorting machine. I think this is the reason for some of the Expired cards to me. If it does not cost more to send it in an envelope, please use one. I still like the back to be filled with writing as much as possible - also write your city, country, and date on the back of the postcard if you send in an envelope.***

I started Postcrossing so I could learn more about the world and the people in it. When I send my cards, it's a difficult decision process because my goal is to send the card I think will be added to their "favorites." I can tell when others try to do the same for me and it makes me smile. :D

Here are my preferences:
♥ scenic landscapes or famous place
♥ evening lights
♥ cathedrals, temples, palaces, castles, mills
♥ traditional people & babies, food, or ceremonies
♥ artistic, creative, or funny photographs
♥ animals (funny, cute, or majestic)
♥ UNESCO world heritage sites

♥ or anything else unique about your home.

Dislike:
- multi-view (prefer single image cards)
- free/ad cards
- paintings (I like photographs)
- card from a different place outside of your country
- tv cartoons, movies, celebrities

Here is the link to my favorites to see what I enjoy:

ON THE BACK:

I love cards with the back FULL of writing and cool stamps - this is my favorite part (learning your culture/history; seeing your handwriting). The more you can write, the happier I am. Also, please write the date (format: 01 JAN 2011).

You can explain to me what is on the front of the card and your personal experience with it. Or, just write anything interesting you can share about your country or culture. If nothing else comes to mind, share a joke, story, meaningful quote, or draw a picture for me.

Thank you for taking the time to read my lengthy profile.

ABOUT ME:

I am 50% Korean 50% German-Scottish and I live in Colorado with my husband and 2 Birman cats. I have visited 39 of the 50 states. I have also lived in Germany (father was in the Army), South Korea, and I've visited Brazil and Spain. My favorite activities are geocaching, sightseeing, hiking, and skiing. I love ethnic food: Korean, Indian, sushi, Vietnamese, and boba (bubble/pearl) tea. My favorite animal (besides my beloved cats) is the panda bear. I grew up learning to play piano, flute, and my dream is to next learn to play the cello.

EXPIRED CARDS:

Message me if I have not received your postcard. I do check my mail frequently so if it becomes expired, it must be lost. :(
