!!!! I received a postcard from Nepal without ID, please pm me if you check this!!!!

Hi! I'm Laura and I live in the North of Italy and I've been collecting postcards since I was a small child. I actually started when I found the postcards my mother and father exchanged when my father was in the Military Service when he was 19.

First of all, I suffer from arachnophobia, please, please, whatever postcard you choose, please no spiders! (or insects, yuck!)

I just love viewcards too much. What I'd like to receive:

- city views,
- monuments (statues, old/ancient buildings, historic ruins),
- castles, (I love castles!!)
- noble palaces (kings/queens/emperor's palaces),
- Churches, Basilicas, Cathedrals,
- Temples, Shrines,
- landscapes (mountains, volcanoes, falls, etc),
- particularities of a country
- UNESCO sites
- pretty much anything that makes me appreciate this beautiful world.

and I don't particularly like

- freecards with advertisement on them
- Christmas cards (or Easter, I mean holiday/celebration cards)
- If possible no animals/flowers (if other than a monument/view there's an animal/flower it is ok ;))

Single- or multi-view, day or night view doesn't matter ;), I like them all. Don't need to write a lot behind, if you don't know what to write just write something in your language with a little translation in English (or Italian, of course) :D it would make me very happy (I'm a language junkie, I just love them, especially the ones with particular alphabet such as Hebrew, Greek, Korean, Chinese and Japanese)

If your card is an UNESCO site, please let me know in your message ;) I have a particular folder on my gallery for UNESCO sites.

And please if there's no description behind the card or the writing isn't in English, please, please tell me at least the city represented. A description of the card is better since, you know, seeing something and not knowing what it is, is a let down...

Please try to send cards from your own country. I'm European, I got tons of European cards so if you're not European, try to send postcards from at least your continent. It's kinda disappointing to receive a card from let's say Malaysia and seeing an European capital on it. Promote your country!

My postcard gallery is here: http://postcards.eiencafe.com/ if you want to check what postcards I already have. They're divided by continents and in each continent, countries are in alphabetical order (countries by English name). (Russia is in the Europe album even the Asian part, Turkey is in Middle East album, Americas comprehend North, Central and South America except for the USA which has a 'private' folder).

I love web-designing and spend my free time working on my website and fanlistings (postcard fanlisting: http://cards.eiencafe.com and PostCrossing fanlisting: http://crossing.eiencafe.com) or just reading crime novels, thriller and mystery stories.

I think that's all... I've almost reached 3k characters! I talk too much
