About Päivi...
I am a 67 years old woman, living in a countryside.
I have always liked postcards, to collect them - I collect cards of angels -, to send them and to get them, so this postcrossing is just my thing. I have lots of other hobbies too: I make cards myself, mostly with stamped images. Photographing is also fun. Now I am very interested in making art ,drawing and painting. I like reading (detective stories are my favorites). I like travelling too.
I would like to read something about you, your town, country or something about the card you send.
I especially like postcards with pictures of:
-large letter vintage cards
-angels, fairies, fairy-tales, fantasy
-cats
-mountains, rocks
-paths, narrow lanes
-windows, gates, fences, doors and balconies
-abandoned places, odd buildings
-cosy homes and gardens
-cemeteries
-bicycles
-"woman in a harmony": women reading, sitting in a garden, washing, doing handicrafts
-portraits of women (photos or drawings)
-people wearing national costumes
-vintage postcards (old and reprints)
-coffee and tea
-art cards
-cards of Alphonse Mucha
-Art Nouveau
Of course all kinds of postcards are welcome and I am looking forward to seeing them!
Please, could you date your card.
I scan and upload every card I receive.
