Hi to all
My name is Keijo and I'm from Finland (Europe). I(& my wife) have been collecting over 20 years for used worldwide. At current state our collection contains a bit over 50 000 different stamps (& other philatelic items) from countries A to Z, classic to modern.
Looking forward to getting to know this community! It seems like a nice place with interesting discussions.
Cheers
-keijo-

Welcome to the forum Keijo,
I hope you enjoy it here.
You say you collect W/W. Do you have any favorite countries or themes?
I collect USA stamps and W/W Airmail/Airmail Semi-Postal stamps.
Kind Regards,
Dave N.

Hi Dave,
I'd say my interests vary from time to time... Last year I had passion towards 1960's Dune states (Ajman,Manama etc) and trucial states; and I bought a lot of material relating to those areas. This year I've been very fond with stamps of P.R.China, Japan, North Korea and Switzerland... But like most true worldwdide collectors, I collect everything with a big and open heart ;)
best,
-keijo- |

Welcome. Isn't it great that if our passion wanes for one area of collecting we can always set it aside and focus on another. There is always something new to collect, learn, and share with stamps. |
