About Josine...
Hello, my name is Josine!
I live in Tilburg, that’s a fairly big town in the south of The Netherlands. I live with my lovely boyfriend (for over 22 years) in a terraced house, no kids, just the two of us and our spiteful budgie.
I love to send and receive postcards. They’re like little presents that come through the letterbox, how wonderful! So let’s get that letterbox rattling! I don’t have specific preferences really. I’m just very curious what you will send me.
When you would walk into my house, you would immediately see our huge bookcase full of all sorts of books. I read a lot and love it. All kind of genres really. If you have any recommendations, please let me now!
I love going on holiday. Favorites are England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. And Greece: the food, the sun and the nice people. The island Guernsey stole our hearts though, we've been there a couple of times now (five, six? who's counting?).
What else do I love, besides reading and travelling… Just a quick sum up: read, travel, Belgian beers, port(wine), cheese, Christmas, birthdays, hanging with friends, stories, hugs, sunshine, nature, animals, movies, ice hockey (our team, Tilburg Trappers, plays in the German Oberliga!), a warm fire, swimming, cycling, just enjoying life really.
So that’s a bit of me. There’s a lot more I could write here. I’ll try to keep this up to date, maybe tell you my latest reads or travels (four days of beautiful Norwich in the UK). Upcoming is a concert of Simple Minds in Amsterdam, so perhaps we'll book a hotel. Already booked our summer holiday: two weeks of Lesbos, Greece!
Thanks for reading and thank you for your card!!
Take care and best wishes,
Josine
