• If you don't receive my swap item within a reasonable time from my "sent date," please let me know.

I enjoy scrapbooking, taking walks, and reading. My favorite vacation spot is the Oregon coast.

Favorite Music: The type of music I have on my IPod right now: Motown, some disco (hey, stop laughing!), spiritual, and pop. I mostly use my IPod when I take long walks so the music is pretty upbeat.

Favorite TV Shows: Some of my favorite shows are Grimm, Once Upon a Time, and Big Bang Theory.

I like to swap these items:

• postcards

• coins from countries other than the United States - small amounts only

I started collecting postcards when I was a child. Now that I'm all grown up and can afford to spend more on postage and send/receive cards from foreign countries, I also enjoy collecting postage stamps. I trade postcards at Postcrossing too; my Postcrossing username is the same, qwerty2k.

I prefer store bought postcards and my cards written & stamped (but if it's easier/less expensive for you to mail it in an envelope, that's fine too) . No ad cards, please.

My favorite kinds of postcards include:

• people dressed in their culture's traditional clothing
• views with fog, low clouds, or mist - click on the "My Postcard Collection" album link (above) to see examples
• penguins, puffins, pandas
• 2016 Summer Olympics
• single view cards (nature landscapes, city views, famous landmarks)
• maps
• USPS stamp postcards (the postcards that the USPS issues with a picture of a stamp on the front)

Pretty postage stamps on the postcard are always appreciated. :)
