Hello and welcome to my website. If you want to know more about me, [touch me gently] for more information. This website is set up for one of my oldest and most passionate hobbies- postcard collecting. Here you will find information about me, my postcard collecting hobby and trading information. What you will not read here is what other websites say "my aim is to get a postcard from each country around the globe" (but you have actually just read that, yay me! :D) and similar but obvious information. I'd like to exchange postcards with people from all over the world. Here you can see some samples of what I have for trade; however, I have more than that and can match your preferences. I can send animal (dog and cat, rarely horses) cards in exchange for cards I collect. Many cards in my album are marked as unavailable because the bookshop that had them was closed forever and those cards are not stocked in other bookshops. I will be on the lookout for them, of course.
You send postcards from the country/state you live in! My interests are:
city panorama
night view of a city
places of interest
historic sites, including churches
people and specifics of the country; maps are also OK
Japanese sights and other Asian sights.
But we can talk about each swap seperately in person. I am willing to do regular or one time swaps of up to 10 (but we can agree and about more) regular size (10x15) postcards to different countries and I prefer to exchange 4 cards only for our first trade. I accept only mint/new postcards. Among that, my meta-preferences would be:
comment:
A beautiful site with outstanding language. The maps collection is nice. What I have seen on the Ginte's site from the same Baltic state has some in common: love for Japan (I would suggest a there, a captivating one, postcards with reproductions of Japanese woodcuts), origami, collector may be studying Japanese, church motifs or themes.
And again, the mints are the only option. What would they ONLY say to the simple fact that the established deltiologic assoc of Miami does not consider postcards even stamps with cancellation stamp prints and written on as less valuable, but rather on the contrary?
