About Anne...

** I have been away from Postcrossing for a few years due to financial problems **

Hi there!

I am Anne Marieke a Dutch woman, 40 years old, who loves nature, pets, travel, gardening and much more.
Originally I am from Netherlands, thats why my earlier period cards have the NL tag. I moved to Iceland after wanting this all my life. And Im very happy here, but rather lonely sometimes. So Postcrossing hopefully gives back some connection to the world.
I am alone here, but have my own horse, an Icelandic stallion named Kærleikur, meaning lovely, which was also a 40 year old wish come true. But he is still young so growing up far away from me. :) And later this year I hope to finally get my cat Tiger to Iceland. She is still with my parents in Netherlands. It takes effort and lots of money to get her here.

I hope postcrossing brings back some smiles on my face, but my first cards sent from Iceland seem to take forever. First one got delivered after 'just' 50 days. I may have used the slow stamps. Next times I will use the airmail version again. I was tight on money as my horse needed some special care and treatment taking all my savings.

Card Themes I LOVE in random order:

** European Badgers
** Iceland (even if I live there)
** Icelandic horses
** Northern Lights
** Ice & Snow
** Volcanos
** Waterfalls
** Coast lines
** Egyptian Cats
** Moon
** Puffins
** Owls
** Girafs
** Fairies, trolls, witches and elves
** Celtic Lore, Nordic lore, Sami lore, asatru related
** Sagas & Legends
** Mystic Places
** Animals (horses, rabbits, swans, hedgehogs, tigers, wolves, bears etc)

Themes I like less, (DONT LIKE or even not appreciate):

Christianity
Churches
Babies
Nude
Pop culture
Art
Anne Geddes
Pooh bear

But this is relative, if you think I might like them, send them (except nude because that really really is not appreciated in any case at all). I don't bother about selfmade as long as they are sturdy enough to endure the travel. Tourist cards are always ok too. As well as seasonal cards or birthday cards if you send in end of oktober/all of november. Its even very appreciated.

Happy postcrossing, from the land of fire and ice!!! :)

If you are new to Postcrossing... Please please please do send and register the cards also if you decide to stop. It is not fair to those who are waiting. We spend time and fortune into what we like. So please register before you quit. Thank you!

I know Iceland is a dream destination, but Im not interested in anything else than just regular postcard exchange. No direct swap, no pen palling and sure no unrequested visitors. Except if you are a local.
