Hello everyone!

I just joined to the community. I've always LOVED snail mail, and cards in general (birthday cards, Xmas, Halloween, etc.), but mainly POSTCARDS =)

I have a postcards collection, most of them on my room walls, i haven't counted them yet but I will soon and let you know how many do I have. I just got two new ones today, from friends in LJ, one from Canada and one from Argentina!

I'm happy to see I'm the first member from Latin America. Now a little about me:

My name is Shirley, I'm from Costa Rica, 21 years old, a psychology student. I'm an Aries, my birthday's on March 25th (1986, to Tiger in chinese zodiac). I love photography and nature in general, and would love to receive cards that are artistic and show something unique about the place they're from, especially natural or architectual. I love sending postcards as much as receiving them, you'll see that soon. I promise I'll send a card to anyone who does that for me.

If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer. Anyway, thank you and bye :-)

PS:
My address:

Shirley Cerdas
P.O. Box 7-1150
San José, Costa Rica

If you send me a card, I'd be very thankful if you include -at least- your name (nickname, lj-user, signature, whatever) and the date and year you sent it, so it's forever in my memories :) *Anything* else you write will be as treasured as the card itself.

I'm new :)
I'm hoping this will work out, cause I've never been very good at putting stamps on things. But I'm better with postcards than anything else, my old housemates have me very well trained for when I go on holiday!

I'm (just) 23, a dancer, I love colour and scenery and new places. I'm halfway through a final year at Uni, in Bristol, UK, studying Geography, and I can't wait for it all to be over! Also getting married this summer (Exciting!)

I do speak good French as well as English, just to add a bit to the fun, so if you want your postcards in French, let me know ;)

Hoping to hear from some of you soon!
