Уважаемые посткроссеры из Белоруссии, если возможно, не присылайте мне, пожалуйста, открытки с видами вашей Национальной библиотеки. Благодарю за понимание!

Here you can find a list of postcards I would like to have in my collection: http://picasaweb.google.com/CrossfordYa/MyWishlist
It will be great if you can send me something from this list.
Also I like handwritten letters very much. If you also like to write and to receive such letters then I will be very glad to contact with you.
Not so far I found a new pleasure in collecting tickets. This (rare) kind of collecting called memoryphilia.
And I love details and different little things. Maybe you could send me something from your life - candy wrapper, coin or tea bag, or something else) it's so interesting.. https://plus.google.com/photos/114883760376671041293/albums/5704494594086074561?hl=ru
