Hi all! My name is Irina, I am a big lover of slow mail and written correspondence. To me, the joy of finding a letter in the mail is second only to sending a message of love. Maybe a person is having a bad day, and your heartwarming lines can make them smile. You never know, right?

I collect stamps and I am very passionate about them!

My favorite themes include:

• FOOD (gastronomy, food from your country, fruit & vegetables etc.);
• astrology & the stars;
• Egyptian Pharaos;
• Tucson, Arizona and the Sonoran desert;
• illustration (like cartoons, comics, drawings, etc.);
• minerals & gemstones;
• flowers and vegetables (especially iris, orchids & cacti);
• art;
• Christmas;
• graphic design.

Don’t know what to write me? Tell me what inspires you, a quote from your favorite writer/artist or mindfulness & relaxation tips. Maybe you can send me a recipe you like? :-)

Please do not send things with mushrooms or feet-related. I am inexplicably grossed out by them.

No politics and religion please.

• In case you missed the initial part, I am a stamp collector :-D So stamps are always most appreciated.

• I am very passionate about cooking and obsessed with vintage recipe cards. Maybe you have a recipe you want to share with me? :-D

• I also love stitching, sewing, embroiding, knitting. I wish to learn quilting! Please share with me any YouTube/Instagram accounts related to these crafts.

• Washi tapes of all kinds and forms are another big favorite!

I always send all my swaps on time. All letters are carefully measured with a ruler and scales. If there is any issue, please contact me before rating me. I think swaps should be relaxed and mutually enriching, so you’ll always have my availability.
