About taratai...
Hi and welcome!
I have been into Postcrossing for a while, and then had a long break, now I would like to come back to this once again. I am 28, married, working at the university and trying to live my life at fullest.
I have a zillion of hobbies and interests, the biggest one being books (fantasy), movies&series, board games, travelling, art, and painting. I belong to many fandoms, I guess I can call myself a geek! I adore cats and love other animals. Hopefully one day I get to live in my own little house, surrounded by a garden and several animals to keep me and my husband company. I get to travel a lot, but it never bores me and I have a dream to see most of the world. Postcrossing is one of the ways to get closer to my dream, and also one of the small simple joys of everyday life.
I know that choosing the right postcard for every person might be tricky, but I really, Really care about what I receive, so I listed my several all-time favorites:
- ART (I collect postcards from every art museum/gallery I visit). I love Pre-Raphaelite, Impressionism, Post-impressionism, Romanticism, Symbolism and dislike contemporary art.
- ILLUSTRATIONS to books or simply artsy pictures / "book worm"
- Ireland / Scotland / England
- anything Celtic / Viking / fairytale
- "Outlander" / tartan, plaid, heather, Highlands
- Terry Pratchett's Discworld / GOOD OMENS!!
- Andrzej Sapkowski's "The Witcher" series and video games
- Game of Thrones / Stranger Things
- Japan / Studio Ghibli / Sailor Moon / Sakura the Cardcaptor
- Lord of the Rings /Hobbit/ Harry Potter
- Secret Garden / British children books - Winnie the Pooh, Paddington bear, Peter the Rabbit / comic books/ graphic novels!
- Astrid Lindgren books / Tove Jansson's Moomins
- Nature / mountains / ocean / forest / (house) plants / botanic illustrations
- autumn / Halloween!!
As I am a vivid postcard collector, a huge favor would be NOT to send me postcards with cities/sightseeing or the postcards you yourself deem boring, but essentially every card received will be appreciated :) You can write me about your favourite book or tv show or fandom :)
Stamps, stickers, drawings, calligraphy, washi tape on a card - I love them all! :)
For interested in DIRECT SWAP - I don't collect country/city views, unless it's Ireland/Scotland/England or Japan. I will be willing to swap if you have a card from my list of interests (see above), then I will do my 110% best to send you precisely the card you want :)
Thank you and happy Postcrossing!
Cheers,
Lena
