Wandervogel

I mark as "sent" on the same day when I put the swap into the mail-box, but if I put it there later than at 12pm, it may be that the envelope will be stamped only the next day or on Monday, if I send it out during the weekend. Please consider it!
If I didn't rate you, pls, drop me a message and I'll double check!
Or if you didn't get my swap, please, first contact me! I never intend to flake on you, I have a nice profile and don't wanna ruin it. But post gets lost...

Hello World! I'm keen on linguistics, archeology and backpacking. I'm an avid nature lover and vegetarian :)

I adore languages and the process of learning them. I also can fluently speak and write in German, English and Russian and learning Italian now!

I like my cards written&stamped with picture related messages.

I'm open to private swaps, chack my offers (links are above) and make your offers ;) Pls, don't send me written postcards in envelopes - it's the worst thing that can happen to a postcard!

I DON'T enjoy in postcard-swaps:

✖ kids' scribbles, modern/abstract art, pantone
✖ words only, unofficial GF, Ortsschilder
✖ vulgar, meat/alcohol, politics

And about other types of swaps, which I also adore ;)!

What I enjoy getting in various swaps (in no particular order):
❥ teas (any except, anise, honey, rose, fennel). If you are from the Netherlands, I will be totally happy, if you can send me Pickwick with wild/forest berries - it's a tea from my childhood
❥ anything about India, Hindu mythology, Tibet, buddhism, yoga, prayer flags etc.
❥ any arts in Hindi, Sanskrit
❥ Ancient Egypt
❥ the Knights of the Temple, Graal etc.
❥ water-colour pictures

And my kinda hate-list:
✖ key chains / fridge magnets / cell phone charms
✖ soft toys
✖ polymer clay / quilling / quilting
✖ glitters, childish stuffs
✖ anything with rose or honey scents
✖ haribo and all similar jelly stuffs
✖ FB's / Friend sheets
✖ stationary stuffs like memo sheets, pins, sticky notes, letter paper, teacher stickers

I'm not going to hate you for sending me these items, but you must know I have no use for them. So it's just wasted money for you and disappointment for me!

My favourite movie of all times is "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"! :)

Actually I have a really wide range of comedies among my favourites. I like Amelie e.g. And I like anti-utopic or alternative history movies. My special preference belongs to Wes Andersen's masterpieces, esp. the Darjeeling Limited because of its special atmosphere. I hope to make such a spiritual journey one day, too.

Here are some more of my favourite movies, franchises and sitcoms in no particular order:
Marvel Universe (esp. Thor, Capitan America and X-Men)
Wonder Woman
The Hunger Games
Spy movies like James Bond (esp. Daniel Craig and Sean Connery), Bourne movies
Star Trek
Indiana Jones
Friends
The office
The big bang theory
How I met your mother
Arrested Development

I really enjoy different kinds of New Age, meditation and ambient music.

I love stitching, wire-working, beading, crochet, papercrafting :) Simple sewing is also on my list.

I love yoga & pilates very much. It's my medicine for mind and body. I think it is the best thing that can bring you to a harmony with yourself. When I do yoga it allows me just to be myself and to discover my body afresh. Right now I'm doing my YTT 200h.

The only person I'd like myself to be compared to is me yesterday.
