Hi everyone!

My name is Bianca. I love the ocean and everything about it. I like hiking, collecting bookmarks and doing different crafts (esp. lampworking and pottery). I'm also interested in ancient civilizations (a real passion of mine), art history and other cultures.

I have started collecting ♥♥♥ map postcards ♥♥♥.
So I would prefer to receive cards with maps on them but I am happy to receive any card that you send.

If you are looking for ideas, here are some of my favorite
postcards topics:

- maxi cards, stamp cards
- VW Bus, Vespa, Lambretta
- Educational Charts
- Nouvelles Images (multiples)
- anything to do with the "ocean" such as sealife, shells, driftwood, sea glass, amber, fish and fishing...
- recipes or images with seafood cuisine (like shrimp, mussels, lobster, fish...)
- archaeology and ancient history themed cards
- stone circles, megaliths, ancient monuments
- snow scenes, volcanos, lightnings, tornados
- bicycles
- Thomas Kinkade (cottages)
- old street lanterns
- mailboxes
- Vintage Mickey Mouse, Betty Boop, GorJuss, Correspondances
- Pippi Longstocking (black/white photograph)
- NASA, space, astronomy
- Titanic
- wildlife animals: turtles, whales, baby polar bears, owls, bees, baby elephants
- Elvis, Audrey Hepburn, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse
- images of Buddha, Dalai Lama, Buddhist monks
- anything related to crafts (like pottery, lampworking, spinning, knitting, basketry, felting, bookbinding, old tools & materials)
- something unique or special to your country e.g.:

From FINLAND: Moomins♥, Aurora Borealis, map cards, campfires :D
From THE NETHERLANDS: windmills, klompen, dutch delft blue, the wadden sea
From BELARUS: I love the "Fauna of Belarus" series
From RUSSIA: Cathedrals in snow, Matryoshka dolls, Yuri Gagarin, Fabergé eggs and I collect the Electra bicycle postcards by Anton Gorbunov
From CHINA: Great Wall, Panda, Terracotta Warriors, Chinese Porcelain
From JAPAN: Geisha/Maiko, GOTOCHI, Mount Fuji, Maneki-neko 'lucky cat'
From AUSTRALIA: map card, Uluru (Ayers Rock), koala, kangaroo
From USA: a card with a collection of all presidents, Obama, flags, state maps, map cards in general, beautiful view with state name on the front side, because I try to collect all US states.

I prefer single view. Thank you. :)

You can also check out my 'Favourites' [http://www.postcrossing.com/user/silbermoewe/gallery/favourites] which are all cards that I like but don't have.

I DO NOT like:
- photographs with flowers, babies and pets (cats, dogs, horses...). I love them, but the real ones ;-)
- selfprinted cards
- ad cards

I also prefer the cards written and without envelopes (and don't forget the date).
Nice stamps would make me more than happy! :-)

However, I will enjoy receiving any postcard you would choose to send to me.
I register postcards the day I receive them.

Thanks for taking time to read all this. Have a nice day! :)
