I have a new PO Box.

I love making my own postcards and I think it's fantastic when someone sends me something they made themselves. It's one-of-a-kind and personal.

Borrowing from NRGordon's description, I like making postcards from found images. If you like making postcards and you are my swap partner, send me one of your creations. Let me know how you made it and tell me something about the image you picked (why you picked it, what you like about it).

Cut n Paste postcards are one of my favourite style of postcards. They are fun to make and receive. I like rummaging through magazines for images that will make a great postcard.

I put a return address label on everything I send out.

If you haven't received a card within a month of my send date, please let me know.

Things I find interesting:

• Keri Smith--in particular her Wander Society concept. Solvitur Ambulando!
• Documenting things a la the Wander Society
• Hygge concept - cosy, comforting, calm, zen
• Little Free Library visits while wandering and exploring
• Dogs (and generally all animals including spiders and insects)
• Coffee shops
• Whimsical things
• Folk art (e.g. Maud Lewis, Grandma Moses)
• Canadiana (or your country's stereotypical/cultural/characteristic things)
• Amateur art made by regular people
• Tartan
• Public art galleries
• Artist Co-op stores

What I like on Netflix (December 2019):

• Downsizing
• The Shape of Water
• Three Billboards
• Victoria & Abdul
• The Crown
• John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch
• Ronny Chieng Asian Comedian Destroys America
• Hello My Name is Doris
• Swiss Army Man
• I, Tonya
• Theory of Everything

FYI, I have a short queue in my Relationships section, but I don't use the Relationships/Friends feature. I don't understand this feature or the benefits involved, so I'm going to ignore it.

To all those people who join my swaps and rate promptly and with a nice note...

A quote from VivaLaDiane that I like:

• I feel a 5 says - you did what you said when you said.

• A comment says "and I appreciate that".

• A heart says "you cared about more than just fulfilling your obligation - you cared about my happiness"

My hope is to brighten someone's day with what I send.
