I am an American expat who has lived on Phuket Island in Thailand since December 2004. I teach English to a wide range of students -- including government school primary-level children. teenagers studying to take the IELTS or TOEIC exams, and staff members of local businesses.

In my free time, I enjoy reading (especially mysteries and history), photography, studying local history, collecting stamps from all over the world, as well as Postcrossing.

I've traveled extensively throughout Asia and North America as well as a few places in Europe. Whenever I travel, I always try to send postcards to myself.

Postcards I like to receive include:

-- Maps and flags of your city or country
-- Greetings From series by Postallove.com
-- Flag cards by Postcard Market
-- City views
-- UNESCO World Heritage Sites
-- National costumes, food, people (especially dancers)
-- Local road transport (rickshaws, tuk-tuk's, bicycles, cars, buses, boats, etc.)
-- Big ships (cruise, naval, etc.)

And I love pretty stamps on the cards. If your country has issued a stamp honoring Postcrossing, I would really appreciate seeing that on the card you send.

But, basically anything you put some thought and care into selecting will be much appreciated.

I write about my postcards on my blog:
