About Tracy...

Originally born in South Africa, immigrated to The Netherlands with my Dutch born husband and our two daughters in 1998. Settled in Lelystad in the province of Flevoland, which didn't exist before 1950, as it was under the sea! We live on land reclaimed from the Zuiderzee. I work as a social care worker, helping mentally handicapped people in their everyday lives in an assisted living facility.

I worked some years ago as a post lady, and it was whilst delivering post that I found out about Postcrossing. I noticed at one address that somebody got a number of postcards every day. At first I thought that they were getting post from family on holiday, until I realized that the senders were people from all over the world. I was so curious that I asked the people one day when I saw them outside. They told me about Postcrossing. I have always enjoyed getting post, but nowadays there is so little of it. I delivered mostly bank account mail, invoices, fines, tax forms and advertising folders and hardly any cards and letters.

Besides keeping in touch with people, I also enjoy painting and drawing (I worked for some years in South Africa as a Graphic Artist) reading, knitting, needle felting, photography, bird watching, baking and computer games.

All sorts of postcards are welcome. Images from your country, beautiful artworks, Zentangles, funny cards, old fashioned ones, cute ones. I don't mind.

Happy Postcrossing everyone!
