About Me

I'm 24 and a copywriter. I love writing letters and sending postcards and cute stuff to friends. I walk to a nearby post office on a daily basis just to send out all the letters and postcards to my friends. It's such a pleasant and enjoyable walk, indeed! Some of my interests include: Reading (Literature, magazines, manga, etc.), music, Britpop, films, Lomography (own 2 Holgas and another TLR; always on the look out for more!), letters, stationery, postcards, my dog, traveling, art, lifestyles and fashion, and loads more... At the moment I'm pretty much into watercolouring. Can't wait to finally use my first moleskine! ^__^

Comment: Thank you for the postcard. I have a Holga too, but I don't use it much as it costs so much to get the photos printed from 120 film. I love the photos it takes though.
Response: Do they require you to print the photos right after the film has been developed? Here we ask the shop to scan our film so we also have the digital photos that we can later print upon selection. Btw, which Holga do you have? Hope to see the photos you take with it some day! ^^
