Hey my name's Joe, I'm 25 and I live in Watford, just to the North of London. I enjoy street photography, watching ice hockey (Coventry Blaze) and architecture (especially brutalist) Until last summer I lived in Ekaterinburg, Russia. I'm back in the UK now and love it here but I miss the excitement of living abroad!

I would be thankful for all kinds of cards, but you could make me especially happy with:

- Soviet (or Soviet Bloc) posters about the Olympics, Space, Peace, Labour, Studying, International Solidarity.. (советские плакаты об Олимпийских играх, Космосe, мирe, трудe, учебе, международной солидарности)
- Soviet period buildings (flats, train station, circus..) (советский период зданий, например цирк, вокзал, жилой дом..)
- Russia/Soviet Matchbox labels (спичечные этикетки)
- German Postcrossers I'm fascinated by the DDR, I would love a postcard related to that theme :)
- Metro stations (станций метро)
- Modernist architecture (concrete, Brutalist, Bauhaus, Corbusier etc.)
- Paintings of your town/city/countryside..
- Art postcards
- Postcrossing postcards
- Views of your country's nature
- Vintage/Traditional postcards
- Gotochi cards (I only have Yamagata now)
- American Large Letter (Greetings From..) Postcards
- Photographs (street, photography, famous, documentary photography)
- Abstract colours
- Images from local folklore
- Maxicards
- Nouvelles Postcards
- Moomins (especially Snufkin)
- Polish Postcrossers I love the Postallove postcards of Polish posters :)
- See my favourites for more ideas :D

***Not my favourite: Ad cards, homemade cards, funny/joke cards***

Some ideas for the back of the postcard:

- Some words in your language
- Your favourite song (from your country)!
- What are you looking forward to at the moment?
- A drawing of something (your desk, your home, the view from your window, something in your city, your pet..)
- Your views on politics or something happening in your country
- Stick something from your country on the back (a bus ticket, a coin..)
- A fun fact about your country!
- Tell me about your job :)
- Your favourite memory
- If you were an object what would you be?
- Who inspires you?
- What are you good at :)?
- Or maybe ask me some questions :P

Eсли вы говорите по-русски, пожалуйста, пишите по русски, поетому что я хочу практиковать.Спасибо вам ))
