02/16/24: Post to the US seems to be taking longer than usual. If you're waiting for something from me do get in touch as it will be on the way and I can give details. Likewise, if I've not rated it's because it's not arrived yet, but keep faith! It will get here eventually :)
Hello! I work in education and journalism I love the fact that so many people across the world work each day to help young people grow up to be the best possible adults.
I live in London which means I use lots of British stamps including ones of the Royal family!
My main loves are postcard and stamps, and I especially love getting messages about what's going on in the news/current events in your country.
I collect stamps. I especially love stamps that feature: - women - education - political events or politicians - elections - social issues - charities - seahorss But, honestly, I just think stamps are beautiful and tell such cool stories about their country that I don't really care what is on them.
Things I really like on postcards: - governments - politics - national events - the colour yellow! anything yellow! - odd or weird or ugly cards -seahorses
Some of my favourite postcards have been offbeat - fluorescent orange apes, photos of people taken in warped mirrors, jokes in other languages.
Other things I like: - pop music - foooood - random small museums (e.g. umbrella museum or butter museum)
But my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE is if you can WRITE A LITTLE ABOUT SOMETHING THAT IS IN THE NEWS in your country: could be a big election, an environmental issue, or a small funny thing you saw recently. I really love the news.
Greenday, Barenaked Ladies and...country music!
Harold and Maude, When Harry Met Sally, High Fidelity and all musicals!
I don't really read fiction but I read LOTS of magazines and non-fiction - about stamps, science, life, decorating, art, music, film...anything that is real life!
Not a lover of cute animals. I like ugly and weird animals. You know, creepy ones that people won't go near or have never heard of.
Water. Terrified of it.
There is a place in my heart for anything you send but if you want to send me into a spin, here are my favourites:
Anything related to government: elections, politicians, government buildings, news items
Anything related to famous women: scientists, archaeologists, pilots, dancers, nurses, anything!
Anything about education: schools, universities, degrees, stationery, teachers, pupils, uniforms
Yellow! All yellow.
Unusual, weird, funny, bizarre cards.
Seahorses!
Beyond that I also like:
But most of all, if you are sending a postcard and there's any space:
Please write about something in the news in your country! It could be anything: a crime, politics, local news, celebrity news. I used to be a journalist and I just really like news :)
