Hello everybody,

My name is Roos and Arend Jan is my dad. My own profile is: http://www.postcrossing.com/user/RoosPostcards

I made this account for my dad because he likes the postcards which I receive a lot.

I will sent out the postcards for him, and let him receive the cards (don't worry, I will make sure they get registered)
Please sent the card to him (not me)

Something about my dad...

He just turned 60 this year (2018)and still feels young. At his job he works with water. He works at our local water company. Making water drinkable and makes sure the animals in our zoo called Wildlands have enough water to swim in (penguins/hippo's icebears turtles etc).
He has been into water for a while. When he was arround 20 I guess (not sure what age) he spent some time at the navy. I still have some postcards he sent to my mom in those days (Indonesia, Dubai, Aruba etc)

In the weekends he works as a DJ. He has been a DJ for many years (started when he was 14). He is really into music, mostly 70/80/90. For example Rolling Stones, Woodstock, CCR, U2, Golden Earring.. but many many more.

Another thing he enjoys doing is taking photographs. He just started with a course about a month ago and enjoys it a lot. He get inspired by pictures at national geographic, lonely planet etc. He just took a tour arround our city taking photo's of abandoned buildings.

He also loves traveling. When he has the chance to go on vacation or a trip, he will go. In 2008 me and my dad went on a cruise at the carribbean. We had lots of fun! (again water ;))

Other things he likes are Ford Mustang, Harley Davidson, one day he would like to drive the route 66 (USA).

Hello,the story here above is true and i would like to thank Roos for including me into Postcrassing. I want to add the fact now that i have stopped working and we don't run a b&b anymore. We live in a small chalet in Drenthe now and we are travelling over the world, spending winter in a warm country.. We have a son who lives with is partner and our grandson in Curacau. When we are there i put postcrossing in TRAVEL mode and send postcards from there.
Also planning to do that in other country's we visit.
So you might be surprised!
