Hi Dolors, you lost the collection? What a pity! Stamps can be very beautiful - miniature works of art.
Can I help?
picked up the envelopes of the letters.= Picked up is not possible here. Maybe you can say: I got the stamps from envelopes.

See you!

I have started some collect, but I quickly abandon. For exemple, I have collect sugar's envelopes; fridge magnets and restaurants cards, I supose because I love to travel and to eat. My older son is a big fan of Game of thrones and he collect little dolls of Game of thones.

When I was very young I collected stamps; I picked up the envelopes of the letters. In the seventies many letters came to our house because my family had a business. I remember the colors and shapes of the stamps, some very beautiful, of cities. I have always looked for them but I do not remember where they are.

A woman in Bogota collects miniature dishes. She has about 200 sets of dishes stored in a cabinet in the living room of her house. Her favorite crockery is a white one that her mother gave her years ago. She likes the details and the patience that the person who did it should have.

There are no people collecting things in my family. In fact, I don't really know any collectors.

Have you ever collected anything?
Yes, coins.
What do or did you collect?
After collecting the coins I collect it in a piggy bank.
Why did you start?
I started when I found a coin by chance.
Are you still a keen collector?
It all depends on the situation.
How many items have you got in your collection?
I have no collection of articles.
Are there any other keen collectors in your family?
I have no collectors in my family.
