Hello everyone!
Finally I'm ready to make my lottery too!! I'm very happy cause I wanted to create something like that when I saw the first one here)
This time it's about old postcards I got at a used bookstore.
Well you know better what to do
If you want to take part post here your number and your nick (#0 kristl) and write a bit why you like getting postcards (I'm sure everybody likes!!)
This lottery ends on May 1, 2008
Good Luck! Hope you'll like this my first try
Kristl

I started collecting postcards four years ago when my sister went off to Italy for two weeks and I was sad about being left at home and so I asked her to buy me a postcard in every city she went to. Soon my friends caught on and started bringing me back postcards whenever they went on vacation. I like them so much because I can't really afford to go anywhere, and so people bring the world to me. My mom's co-worker gave me two postcards from South Africa yesterday, which is wonderful because I can't see myself ever going to South Africa.

I started collecting postcards ages ago - gosh I don't even know how long ago, and I've started to get postcards from all over the world. My ultimate goal is to get postcards from all the countries (although that's not going to be easy)... I find I especially love the older postcards, I have a few of them, and I absolutely adore them. I now have one photo album full of them and another for all the larger sized postcards... postcards = love in my opinion. :-)

......................... I'm currently busy with school so it's hard to make posts all the time, but I am active on the site and I update when I can - I don't like at-home updates as when I go new places and take them with me. I also like to host TV's for a longer period than a few weeks, so they can see more of Australia while visiting me... please take that into account when messaging me with a want for me to host your little one! :-)
Would you like to host any of my toyvoyagers?

I adore vintage postcards and once in passages de Paris I was even almost attacked by the other fanatic, when I (by mistake) tried to look in the pack of cards, he saved for buying...
