Hello! I’m Ruby but I shorten it to Bea. I’m 19 and I study Filmmaking in Edinburgh, Scotland.

I live with my mum and my cat most of the time in London when I'm not at university, but often I visit my dad and younger half-brothers in the Norfolk countryside, where my boyfriend and some of my closest friends live too, so I have a great love for and connection to the countryside and nature.

I love hiking and exploring forests, ice/roller skating, painting, listening to records, decorating my room, swimming, and watching films. In the future, I would like to be a screenwriter/director/cinematographer and I'm currently creating lots of short films for my degree. I'd also really love to teach in a primary school because I had a lovely time as a pupil and want to pass that on to the next generation.

I’d love it if you told me about you, about your hobbies, ambitions, what songs or films you like, your job, anything special that has happened to you, something difficult you have overcome, your last dream, someone you miss, your favourite flower or season or a quote which you live by! Do you follow a religion? Believe in astrology? Your MBTI (any fellow ENFPs on here)? What songs, films or books would you suggest? Anything is welcome :)

•Some music I like: Radiohead, Elliott Smith, Alex G, The Velvet Underground, and others like them.
•Some films I like: Anything by David Lynch, Sofia Coppola, Wes Anderson, and my favourite of all time is Amélie!
•Some shows I like: Fleabag, Breaking Bad, Daria, Adventure Time, Yellowjackets, Succession, and my favourite ever is Twin Peaks.
•Some books I like: Convenience Store Woman, My Year of Rest and Relaxation, The Odyssey, The Aeneid, The General In His Labyrinth, Little Women, and my favourite is The Secret History.

Postcards I would be interested in could be about:

-Films and TV shows (especially beautiful shots and posters)
-Actors and directors
-Art and artists
-Archive photos and posters (the wackier the better!)
-Music (particularly from your country or rock, shoegaze, or your favourite)
-Animals and plants
-Old photos

-Paintings or prints
-Jewish history or tradition like festivals
-Pretty art of fairies/nymphs/goddesses
-Handmade cards/your art
-Forests
-Book cover postcards (especially vintage or penguin)
-Art of different time periods (my favourites are the 20s, 60s, 70s, and 90s/00s.)

But don’t worry if you can’t find those!! All cards are appreciated!
