Я говорю по русски, будет приятно получить открытку на родном языке :)

Hi, I'm Vika.
I like art, photography, history, retro and vintage-y things. I live in New Zealand - the land of earthquakes, giant insects, and hobbits.

I would love to receive any kind of postcard except the traditional tourist kind, if you can, please use real stamps :)

Love handmade postcards!

I'm happy to receive all cards as it means you took time to choose one that you think will me happy, but if you want to make me REALLY happy, check out my "favourites". It's more of a wishlist :)

Favourite themes:

- Vintage children's book illustrations
- Traditional costume, art or craft of your country
- Anything pre 1940s (the earlier the better)
- Dinosaurs(!)
- Biology
- Astronomy
- Warwick Goble
- Walter Crane
- Edmund Dulac
- Ivan Bilibin (!)
- Arthur Rackham
- Regional cards from Japan (http://www.postacollect.com/gotochi/index.html)
Happy to direct-swap for a LOTR/Hobbit maxi card for a gotochi card!

Still can't decide what to send? Send me your LEAST or MOST favourite postcard in your collection :)

P.S.
I love reading cards as much as looking at them, stuck for something to write about? Tell me who made you angry this week, what's the most delicious thing you've eaten, or when was the last time you jumped.

Thanks for sending!
