About Kelsea...

I am Masters student with a BS. in Biology and a Minor in Environmental Science. My research is in Forest Entomology studying dung and carrion beetles in longleaf pine forests. I also work in Collection Curation and hope to further pursue this as a career goal. The preservation of natural history collections is so important for science as a whole. I enjoy nature and chose a degree that would allow me to be in the forest a great deal!

My favorite artist is Charley Harper and I love Mid Century Modern design, particularly that with Scandinavian influence. Folklore and Folk Horror are themes I currently visit and enjoy in art, film, and literature. I am involved in cemetery preservation and consider this similar to saving a historic structure such as a church or school. I do 99% of my non-essentials shopping at thrift stores and yard sales; the thrill of unique and high quality finds has made this more of a way of life than a hobby :)

Stamps are just as exciting/important to me as the card and I always love the variety of stamps represented from other countries! Bonus if they are of insects or wildlife! I can't wait to see the stamps you choose for me <3

If your country uses adhesive stamps that are difficult to remove (like the United States) I would love if you sent your postcard in an envelope so I could save the stamps and place them in an album if it’s not inconvenient.

A few key words that helps summarize my favorite PCs are (these are just to give you an idea of what to send, not a demand or request):

Charley Harper
Folklore
Witches
Cockatiels
Pantone Colors
Teacups/Tea accessories

Foods custom to your Country or Area

In the end, it’s senders choice so don’t stress if you don’t have anything like those!

I would love a little note about yourself (likes, passions, hobbies) or a favorite quote, book, color, ect! Feel free to tell me your favorite type of tea as well! If you like insects, share with me your favorite insect species! Tell me the last book you read for pleasure or maybe jot down a simple recipe to try if you have the time.

**My Favorites PC's section include both my favorite PC's I have already recieved or PC's I would LOVE to receive. If you would like to send me a PC from my favorites, please check in the PC description to see if I have already recieved that PC or not if you don't mind. I'm setting up my favorites list to give others an idea of my favorite style PCs. That said, I will be happy with whatever you send :D. Thank you!!
