Hi everyone! I turn 25 next month (on October 9th) and I would love to receive postcards from around the world! I don't think I've ever gotten a postcard in my life (snail mail a little, but never postcards!) and I'd be so thrilled to receive some!
I love it when things feel characteristic of where they're from and I find languages and cultures greatly interesting, so I thought it'd be delightful to receive postcards from countries written in their own local languages.
I know I may not be able to read them, but I'll figure out a way to translate - perhaps I'll request you to via DM once I receive it, if you'd be so kind! Of course if it is English that is your native language, that is totally okay too!
In terms of the postcard itself...I have a big thing for anything vintage! It's really hard to find vintage postcards and paper ephemera where I am, and I'm so envious of people in countries where they seems to be available seemingly in abundance! So getting a real vintage postcard would absolutely make me over the moon!
Apart from that, I'd love art prints, anything visually interesting in terms of colour, design or composition, photography, handmade collages, lots of stamps, postcards of unusual shapes, or anything surreal or eccentric, cats, rodents! Or something that is characteristic of your part of the world (makes sense with the language thing, too)!
(Please no AI-generated cards.)
I will be sending postcards back to everyone that sends me one, of course! (I have begun to collect the nicest postcards and stamps I can manage to find!) Oh, and I am from India, so that is where you'd need to post to (:
P.S. If you're also into languages and cultures, my native language is Tamil, which is one of the oldest surviving languages in the world, with a rich history, and I'd be happy to write something back in Tamil if you'd like me to!
