About Me

Hi,

This is Inan, from U.K. I am a member of Postcrossing, and I am enjoying it. So I decided to find more places to swap stuff with people all around the world, that's how I found the swap-bot. I hope to participate in swaps as much as I can.

It will be really hard to count every single interest of mine, but my main interests are Comics and Graphic novels (I'm not huge fan of Superheros or U.S. mainstream publishers like Marvel etc. but everything counts), cartoons and caricature, arts, design, film, scale models, maps, woodworking...

I am not a full time collector but I love collecting stuff. Anything from USSR, Yugoslavia and other socialist/communist countries as well as African countries are my soft spot.

Favorite Crafts

  • Printmaking
  • Caricatures/Cartoons
  • Illustration
  • Zines

Favorite Television

  • The X-Files
  • Monty Python's Flying Circus
  • Flight of the Conchords
  • Doctor Who
  • The IT Crowd
  • Cheap crime shows

Stamps

I love collecting stamps. I am not a devoted philatelist, but I am back in the hobby, and still love collecting stamps.

My favourite themes are:

  • Space and Aviation
  • Transportation
  • Postal history
  • Technology and Science
  • Communication
  • Comics
  • Flowers
  • Birds
  • Maps

While I'd love to receive stamps from anywhere in the world, my favourite countries are USSR and CIS, island nations, China, Japan and African nations.

Postcards

I love receiving and sending postcards. I always send my postcards naked with a stamp, so I'd like to receive postcards sent in a similar manner.

Comment: Your resend reached me before your first pc did, so I can't comment on if I liked the original or not. But this pc is cool! I really like the stamp, too. Thank you!
Response: Unbelievable :D You're very welcome. The first one is from the same series, I hope you'll receive it soon.

Comment: Thank you, thank you, thank you for the great selection of stamps. I have used some of them already. I just got 4,000 commemorative stamps from Europe last week, so don't worry if you don't have any to mail. I think all of them are from the 1980s. Cheers!!!
Response: I'm glad you liked them :) "4,000 commemorative stamps from Europe"? I'm jelaous now :) Cheers.

Comment: Wow, Inan, the style of writing you use is incredible!! Cats sure do leave their paw prints on our hearts when they leave us. I checked out the t-shirt shop and loved several of their designs!! Especially their geometric kitty ones 😻 Thank you for sharing.
Response: Thank you :) :D I started writing that way because I was bored with the simple handwriting, now it takes more time but it is fun, and almost everyone liked it :) I'm glad you liked the card as well :) Take care.
