Cathleya

I am a software engineer, so I like many geeky things. I like to play chess and I played the french horn for 13 years. I also like penpalling and swapping. I love receiving mail and sending it as well. I collect all things kawaii (cute Japanese).

My big passion is to travel and my biggest dream is to travel all around the world one day. I think that every place has something different that makes it special and I like to discover that uniqueness.

I'm a big fan of Japan and Japanese culture. I have been to Japan 7 times and visited 23 prefectures. That passion is clearly reflected in the movies I watch and the books I read. I love Japanese animation, anime and manga.

I like many kinds of postcards. See link in bio for detailed information about missing postcards in my collection.

My favorite themes include:
- Gotochi & Japanese Postboxes (blank inside an envelope please!)
- Greetings From series
- Kawaii (especially Sanrio and San-x, but other kawaii characters welcomed!)
- Anime & Manga
- Maps
- UNESCO heritage sites
- Coffee & Food
- Black & White
- Orchids
- Art
- Chess
- Music
- Geeky

If you don't know what to write, tell me about:

- The place you live
- Your traditions
- Something in your language (with translation!)
- What should I see if I were 1 day in your city?
