Tenar

My name is Teresa and I am 34 years old. I have one siamese cat called Sushi (born in 2020).

Before reading about my favorite themes, please, I'd love if you could write something important for you on your postcard. A personal story, a dream, a reflection; anything you would like to tell. Sending postcards is also a way of sharing, I believe, and a way of keeping our hope / faith in humanity.

A second theme I'd like to read about is health/medicine. As a primary care doctor, I am deeply interested in the doctor–patient relationship, and I truly believe Postcrossing may help to improve empathy amongst healthcare professionals. So I'd be very glad if you share with me some of your experiences with your doctor / nurse / healthcare professional or something related to your health / struggles / victories / battles.

I love everything related with literature/books/bookish stuff/libraries/bookshops. Some of my favourite authors are Patti Smith, Elena Ferrante, Oliver Sacks, Ursula K. Le Guin (Earthsea is one of my favorite books, as His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman), Milan Kundera, Virginia Woolf, Stefan Zweig, José Luís Peixoto, José Saramago and many others. It would be great if you'd recommend me a book.

Another favorite theme is Hayao Miyazaki's movies and other anime shows, such as "Frieren" and "Natsume Yuujinchou".

I love Art in general; reading, writing, painting, taking photos. My favorite band is Sigur Rós, but I also love Patti Smith, Nick Cave, Japanese Breakfast, Max Richter, The National, etc. I have a blog where I write about art themes, especially literature: https://www.pickashelf.com. I have also an Instagram account with the same name (@pickashelf).

Other things I enjoy: cats, illustrations (such as "Winnie-the-Pooh", "Moomins", "The Wind in the Willows" - E. H. Shepard illustrations) or made by local artists), books, etc. Some movies/TV series I like: Dark (Netflix series), Parasite, Big Fish, La La Land, Harry Potter, Blade Runner, Scrubs, Gilmore Girls, Better Call Saul, movies directed by Terrence Malick, etc.

Some trigger warnings: airplanes, insects and animal cruelty. I really can't deal wih these themes.

I like all kind of postcards, but I would love to receive stamped ones, without an envelope :)

Happy postcrossing!
