Hello world!

I'm Ekaterina and in the profile photo we are together with my husband George and our son Yakov (1 year old) near the Tamarro - mythical creature from Andorra.

We have relocated to Andorra from St.Petersburg so now we are learning Spanish (feel free to use it as well as German). We are passionate opera-lovers. Also we are fond of Art Nouveau style in architecture/art. I worked as a tax advisor at EY, George is a software developer.

I adore stamps! It's such a pleasure to look at stamps from different countries and to send postcards with beautiful stamps too! 2022 EUROPA stamps are dedicated to myths - if you by any chance have them, I would be very happy to see them on the incoming cards.

If you don't know what to write on the postcard - you can tell us about children books famous in your country.

We enjoy receiving any kinds of postcards. But if you need some hints, below you can find several of our favourites just for your inspiration:
- mythology, folklore, medieval
- stained glass, Tiffany lamps
- fairy tales, cartoons, children book illustrations (e.g. Miffy, Krtek, Gruffalo, Moomins, LINE friends, Sesame street, Studio Ghibli, Peppa Pig) signed for our baby Yakov ☺️
- reprints of vintage posters
- portraits of famous people: writers, musicians, actors..
- black-and-white
- theatre, opera, ballet
- art: Basquiat, Lichtenstein, Chagall, Wrubel, Mucha, Klimt, Beardsley, Popart and comics. And we are glad to know new artists!
- Legends Of The National parks by Anderson Design Group
- architecture: castles, museums, mosques
- interesting fish (George doesn't miss a single aquarium!)
- animals: rams, sheep, seals, corgi dogs
- maxicards (cards with a stamp on the picture side & special cancellation)
- lantern press cards from US
- FOTW from origin (arranged https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1euzCQkW_OBjSlzyWpGGrHfMZ7cW--3GxVibiVQvjlbY/edit?usp=sharing)
- города РФ картинка24 из соответствующего города (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BHwEdBM9WKor_s3Bn9EsvcgR4k54oK0btGP0vktxVf0/edit#gid=0).

Please write the date on your card.

With love and peace,
Ekaterina, George & Yakov
