Year of the Pig cards & stamps

I don't like ad and free postcards, vintage, IKEA, black and white postcards, yellowed old ! cards, postcards from postcard boxes, self printed & homemade postcards, self photographed postcards, Touchnote and similar services, calendar postcards: cards where you have a whole year on one card, dead people motives, as well as erotic postcards.
I also don't like most art postcards, unless it is the typical traditional, beautiful art of Your country.
No more postcards with (Christian and Orthodox) churches please.

Please check my "Received" folder to avoid sending duplicates. Thanks.

Please put the date when you wrote it on your postcard.
& Please write a bit in your own language (with translation).

Please use real, nice, 2019 special issue stamps if possible, thanks!
Belarus & Russia: it would great to receive some (big) special issue stamps from your countries e.g. the R. bee stamps
USA: I have the "Global christmas 2018" "Mister Rogers", "Global Green Succulent" & "Forever Global Golf" round stamps already, I would be so happy for some other new U.S. stamps!
I have received several postcards of the series "Fauna and Flora of Belarus", please check for duplicates before sending.
If you live in Japan and can afford it: Gotochi-Cards would be nice to receive! (I have 3x Tokyo & 3x Kanagawa 2x Kyoto)

*I also love very much to receive and send Christmas cards (only bought, please) at the time of the year! :-)*
In November I will be very happy to receive birthday cards from all over the world. :-)

Important: I do not have a scanner to scan the postcards.

Thank you for reading all this. Looking forward to your postcard.
