About Zhou...
Hi everyone,
I'm from Shanghai, China. It's a big and modern city where I've lived since I was born. I like music, handcraft, drawing, cooking, and etc. I enjoy Postcrossing a lot! Of course collecting postcards is one of my hobbies.
I'd prefer my card written and stamped with real stamps. Pretty ones even better:) Also please date your card. Thank you!
As I don't have a scanner, I'm uploading my received cards very very slowly. (But I'll try work harder:)) If you can upload your card before send it or upload the card I sent to you, I would be very thankful^^
My favorites are:
+food (including fruits, drinks, food markets, candy, etc.)
+moomins
+bicycle
+M. C. Escher
+billiards/snooker/9 ball (players, the green baize, Crucible Theatre, etc.)
+plumeria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumeria)
+cards with big white borders:)
+shaped card, especially in the shape of map
Also enjoy: (skip this long list if you feel bored reading it; it's just some hint in case you don't know what to send)
+foggy, misty scenes
+whale, jellyfish, coral ...etc. (photo or illustration)
+colorful cards
+b&w photography (b/w, but not old, nor with vague printing)
+map cards (I like pictorial maps; those that have little illustration or cartoon drawing or little pictures over main sites on the map)
+architecture (castles, churches, bridges, etc.)
+music related (instruments, music halls, or bands, etc.)
+multiples
+transportation (bicycles, trains, sailing boats, etc.)
+krtek, barbapapa, spongebob & patrick star, sakura momoko, astroboy, doraemon, harry potter
+I wouldn't say no to ad cards and handmade cards as long as it's of my favorite theme or when you think it's nice
+Basically, just anything that's pretty or unique, I really find it hard to describe all cards that I would like to receive. While I do prefer real/store-bought postcards than self-printed photos or Zazzle cards etc.
+++One of my peculiarites--I like cards with beautiful pictures framed in white borders a lot!
What you write on the back of the card is almost as important as the picture to me. I love cards with lots and lots of words:)
Besides introducing yourself and your place or the picture on the postcard, you can also tell me about a song/book/movie/concert/play/dish you like, or something special happened to you recently, or simply about the weather...anything you think of at the moment. Thanks!
