About Monika...
Hello!
My name is Monika and I have been living in the Netherlands for 4 years now. I am actually from South Africa. I came to the Netherlands to study a degree in Psychology. I also work part time as a post-man so I sometimes deliver postcards for postcrossing!
Although I was born and grew up in South Africa my parents are german so I can speak german too !I like reading, drawing, shopping and walking outside in nature...
If you need more ideas for what cards I really like please check out my favourite postcards!Oh and please, please write me a nice message :) My fave part of the postcard is the message! I really don't like cards that only say "Happy Postcrossing". I don't care what you write! A dream, a wish, about your pets, what foods you like or about your favourite place to visit!Anything is fine!
P.S Please no ad/free cards unless they are retro/vintage ads.
My favorite things are:
Cakes, sweets, chocolate, coffee,tea, cherrys, strawberries
Funny/ cute/ beautiful animals
Landscapes
Art ( NOT modern or cubist please)
Nature
Old letters, stamps, mailboxes
Maps
Gorjuss cards
