About John...

Hello! My name is John and I live in a small town in Western Wisconsin, USA called Baldwin. I just retired after 30 years in teaching- 4th and 5th grade.

I love to travel, so I thought this would be a fun activity to go along with that. I have been to Europe many times to visit my cousin who teaches on a US Military base in Stuttgart, Germany. We have traveled throughout Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the Alsace region of France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Italy, Ireland, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland. I also have enjoyed several trips to Mexico and Alaska. These trips have inspired me to want to see all corners of this amazing world we live in!

I also enjoy films, reading, cooking, gardening, camping, going to concerts and shows, and just hanging out with friends and family. I am a huge Wisconsin sports fan--The Green Bay Packers (American football), the Milwaukee Brewers (baseball), the Milwaukee Bucks (basketball) and college sports at the University of Wisconsin -Madison (The Badgers).

I love any and all postcards! The more unique/unusual/personal to you, the better! If you need ideas, here are some of my favorites:

Your favorite postcard you have right now
Something important to you
Baseball and Football stadiums
Trains (a train runs right past my house)
LGBTQ Themes/films/book suggestions
Human Rights Campaign, Causes, Issues
Your favorite art/artists
Your favorite movies/actors/directors
Your favorite books/authors
Campfires/cabins
Keep Calm cards
Pubs, Taverns, Bars
Famous people from your country
Political Figures/ Presidents/ Leaders/ Activists
Gardens
Edward Hopper art
Fleetwood Mac/ Stevie Nicks/ Lindsey Buckingham
Rufus Wainwright (this would be rare to receive)
Guster (this would be even more rare)
William Faulkner
Tolkein- Lord of the Rings
Outer Space/ the night sky

I am sure I will enjoy hearing from all of you no matter what you send! As a matter of fact, forget that list! Just send me something that makes you happy!

John
