About Me

I mark as "sent" on the same day when I put the swap into the mail-box, but if I put it there later than at 12pm, it may be that the envelope will be stamped only the next day or on Monday, if I send it out during the weekend. Please consider it!
If I didn't rate you, pls, drop me a message and I'll double check!
Or if you didn't get my swap, please, first contact me! I never intend to flake on you, I have a nice profile and don't wanna ruin it. But post gets lost...

Hello World! I'm keen on linguistics, archeology and backpacking. I'm an avid nature lover and vegetarian :)

I adore languages and the process of learning them. I also can fluently speak and write in German, English and Russian and learning Italian now!

Postcards Swap Preferences

I like my cards written&stamped with picture related messages.
Pls, don't send me written postcards in envelopes - it's the worst thing that can happen to a postcard!
View, GF and map cards, please, send only from the country of origin! For me it's pretty disappointing to get the Eiffel Tour from Taiwan for example...
I'm a collector, so I have many preferences!

What I enjoy getting in postcard-swaps :

New postcards to my collections:
Buddistic Thangkas, Prayer Flags, Stupas, Himalaya, Temples, Buddha
Hindu Gods & Goddesses
Ancient megaliths, ruins and petroglyphs of the world prefer those of your country
Ancient Egypt Culture
Official Postallove GF please only sent from the country of origin
Caravans, Trailers, Wohnwagen, Hippie WV, boho style
Lantern Festival
Yoga only real photos or beautiful arts, no yoga-cats and such fun stuffs
Studio Ghibli
Krtek
Elsa Beskow
Kissing/Cuddling cute & fluffy animals or children kissing/cuddling with cute & fluffy animals
Alphonse Mucha
Movies & actors pls, only Hollywood and no vintage or b&w
Flower Fairies by Cicely Mary Barker
Moomins by Tove Jansson
Hedgehog in the fog
Old Ladies by Inge Löök
Beatrix Potter if possible they are to be sent to Moscow to my mom
Real space and celestial photos like by NASA or Hubble
Maxicards
Venice, Venezia, Venise, Venedig, Венеция (NO MASKS, please!!!)
Irina Smirnova
Jul, Noel, New Year, Christmas (I like vintage X-mas, gnomes, beautiful religious art)
Tausendschön
Matterhorn

I DON'T enjoy in postcard-swaps:
✖ meet-ups / duplicates / greeting cards / envelopes / selfies / poor handmade
✖ boring city-views, view cards not from the country of origin
✖ kids' scribbles, modern/abstract art, pantone
✖ words only, b&w, unofficial GF
✖ gay/vulgar, meat/alcohol, politics
✖ Ortsschilder
✖ cartoons (if not from my favourites)

Other Swap Preferences

And about other types of swaps, which I also adore ;)!

What I enjoy getting in various swaps (in no particular order):
❥ teas (any except, anise, honey, rose, ginger, fennel). If you are from the Netherlands, I will be totally happy, if you can send me Pickwick with wild/forest berries - it's a tea from my childhood
❥ anything about India, Hindu mythology, Tibet, buddhism, yoga, prayer flags etc.
❥ any arts in Hindi, Sanskrit
❥ Ancient Egypt
❥ the Knights of the Temple, Graal etc.
❥ boho/bohemian style
❥ water-colour pictures
❥ sand dollar

And my kinda hate-list:
✖ key chains / fridge magnets / cell phone charms
✖ soft toys
✖ polymer clay / quilling / quilting
✖ glitters, childish stuffs
✖ anything with rose or honey scents
✖ haribo and all similar jelly stuffs
✖ FB's / Friend sheets
✖ stationary stuffs like memo sheets, pins, sticky notes, letter paper etc.

I'm not going to hate you for sending me these items, but you must know they will be thrown away, cause I have no use for them. So it's just wasted money for you and disappointment for me!

Favorite Movies

My favourite movie of all times is "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", because it is just how it should be in your life, if it's not! :)

Alt text

Actually I have a really wide range of comedies among my favourites. I like Amelie e.g. And I like anti-utopic or alternative history movies. My special preference belongs to Wes Andersen's masterpieces, esp. the Darjeeling Limited because of its special atmosphere. I hope to make such a spiritual journey one day, too.

Alt text

Here are some more of my favourite movies, franchises and sitcoms in no particular order:
Marvel Universe (esp. Thor, Capitan America and X-Men)
Wonder Woman from DC
The Hunger Games
Spy movies like James Bond (esp. Daniel Craig and Sean Connery), Bourne movies
Star Trek
Indiana Jones
Friends
The office
The big bang theory
How I met your mother
Arrested Development

Favorite Music

I really enjoy different kinds of New Age, meditation and ambient music.

Hobies & Crafts

I love stitching, wire-working, beading, crochet :) Simple sewing is also on my list.

Sport activities

Alt text

I love yoga & pilates very much. It's my medicine for mind and body. I think it is the best thing that can bring you to a harmony with yourself. When I do yoga it allows me just to be myself and to discover my body afresh.

I simply dislike competitive sports, but I also ride a bicycle.

My Motto

The only person I'd like myself to be compared to is me yesterday.
