ch23

I would like to introduce myself. I am a Mom, sister, daughter, friend and teacher. I had penpals since I was a child but now have switched to postcarding as an adult for the last 5 years or so. I enjoy choosing the perfect card for my recipient and hoping they love the stamps I put on the card too. I have lots to cards to choose from including: view, nonview, zazzle, postcard books and much more. I am not into handmade cards but I appreciate their beauty. I really LOVE view cards as this is my way to see your world. I have a collection of postcards that is well over 1000. I organize it mostly by country and/or theme. My goal is to scan and have an online album but I find I don't have the time to do that. For now I will enjoy the cards and look at them in their boxes. In my free time I like to take my dog for a walk, go swimming, read fiction and non-fiction books, watch tv and of course postcarding. I also like to collect pencils from different countries. Just basic pencils. I have some from vacations I have gone on and love using them. I hope to get to join lots of swaps as I start to get rated, and please be honest and tell me how I can improve as a member. Postcards I collect: lighthouses Harry Potter stadiums food Olympics Disney amusement parks (I prefer real Disney and not illustrations) Disney during the holidays Favourite Disney characters: princesses, goofy, pluto, mickey, Minnie (I prefer real Disney not illustration) amusement parks Peanuts characters Christmas markets Holland lop rabbits (I have a pet one)
