About Me

I'm Ilona and I've been living in UK since 10 years on a beautiful South West english coast in Devon.

I love stamps and postcards and i have been collecting them for ages (started with my grandfather when i was little) :O) every single letter and postcard which comes with my post make me smilie:)

I collect postcards from around the world. My favourite postcards are those that show me the place where you live or cards characteristic for your country. I like landscapes, city views, tourist attractions, map cards but also funny cards and cards with cute animals. I like my cards written and stamped :).

I also like key rings and magnets from all over the world, always when i go on holiday i get one for myself, so it would be nice to get some from the countries i have never been to... (so far i visited only european countries)

Apart from that love crafting, lately machine sewing)...this is all i spend my free time for :O) just love it ...

One more thing i love is a nice cup of tea ... im a teaholic :O) My favorite is a green tea.

Swaping was always around me, im so glad i found people who like it too :O) Im new here but hopefully get to many swaps ...and make many people happy :o)
