About Lauren...
I love snail mail <3 There's just something cool about getting stuff in your mailbox. I've tried to keep up with penpals in the past, but it never works out. I'm hoping something simple like postcards will be much more successful.
General stuff I'd love to see on a postcard:
- Natural views are always great - sunsets, mountain vistas, trees, waterfalls, animals, rivers - whatever :D
- Cityscapes too - I love architecture.
- I don't have many cards from Asia yet, but I do love their style of art. I like that minimalistic look and their gardens are beautiful.
Specific Stuff:
- I'd love to see your city, especially if you live in a place with lots of Gothic cathedrals, fountains, ancient ruins, or unusual buildings. I'm also a HUGE fan of Antonio Gaudi and his work.
- I love waterfalls and ocean views. Really, anything having to do with the water.
- Cultural cards - is there a celebration or ritual in your city? I'd love to see it :)
- Art cards. I don't think I've gotten any as of this writing. I really love Art Nouveau and Mucha, but I also like Edward Hopper, Monet, Caravaggio, The Book of Kells, Romanticism, and Baroque. Anything relating to any of those (be it paintings, sculpture, fashion, architecture) would be really cool.
Other stuff I like:
- Origami
- Ruins
- Vanilla
- Sunsets
- Lighthouses
- Flowers (roses, irises, sunflowers <3) and gardens
- Icy landscapes
- Desert hills
- Horses
- Mill wheels
- Ocean views
- Glass
- Pebbles
- Tickets
- Food
- Coins
- Birds
I hope that gives you something to go on! I look forward to hearing from everyone :D
