iMariangel

Greetings from sunny Florida! ☼ My name is Mariangel and I love to travel.

When I say I want to travel, I don't mean I want to stay at resorts and go on tours with tour guides or buy key chains from souvenir shops.

I don't want to be a tourist. When I say I want to travel I mean I want to explore another country and become part of it.

I want to discover small coffee shops in Germany and Italy and France. I want to walk on beaches in Australia and browse the bookstores of England. I want to hike the Great Wall of China and go cliff diving in Hawaii.

Most importantly, I want to meet people who are not like me, but people who I can like all the same.

I want to take pictures of things and places and people I meet. I want my mind to be in constant awe of life on Earth. I want to see things with new eyes.

I want to look at a map and be able to remember how I was transformed by the places I've been to, the things I've seen, and the people I've met. I want to come home and realize that I have not come home whole, but have left a piece of my heart in each place I have been.

This, I think, is what is at the heart of adventure and this is why I plan on making my life one.

I think that sums me up entirely. For now, I'll have to dream with postcards!
If you send me something you've written in your language and translate it to english I'd be so happy! Or maybe your favorite book or song or place to go.

Cards I like ☺ ☟:

✈ landscapes, especially seascapes (docks, piers, ships)

✈ exotic animals such as lions, toucans, tigers, sea animals,

✈ travel-themed postcards (airplanes, trains, cars)

✈ views of cities and different people wearing traditional cultural clothing (african, asian people, japanese, chinese, arab women, wearing in their traditional costumes)

✈ sunflowers ✿ my favorite ✿ or any other flowers, trees, leaves, etc.

✈ map cards or cards related with postage or stamps!

✈ paintings (Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet, Renoir, Edouard Manet. Or your local painters. )

✈ where you live! remember your card is like an open window to see what other places and countries do look like!

✈ illustrations and cartoons

✈ anything to do with books or literature

✈ unusual postcards (surprise me!)

I love stamps and stickers on my cards!

But most importantly pick a postcard that you like personally, no worries! If you send cards in envelopes please send me a tea bag or a small coin or some kind of ticket from your country :)

Much love,

- Mariangel ♥
