About Barbara...
Hoi!
I'm a geeky lady who loves her movies, manga, anime, games, music, books, dragons, fantasy and overall geekiness.
TV shows I really enjoy are Agatha Christie's Poirot, Sherlock, The Big Bang Theory, Stranger Things, The Great British Bake Off, Masterchef UK & RuPaul's Drag Race (to name a few).
I love to draw (I have a gallery on DeviantArt & Instagram), I love tea, dark chocolate & Japanese KitKats and I love cats. (=^.^=)~
Japan is my biggest passion: the country, the culture, the food and the people! It's truly amazing and we're so lucky to have visited twice now! 🌸♥🌸
I'm a collector of many things (postcards, bookmarks & dragons) and Postcrossing is a great way to make my collections grow.
My wish list is just for inspiration and you can also look at my favourites.
In my albums you can see my favourite topics I already received: https://photos.google.com/albums (It doesn't work properly so I'm making new albums: https://www.flickr.com/photos/190190007@N05/albums . It's still a work in progress)
But don't worry, you can always surprise me! (^_^)
