Why, hello!

So nice to have you stumbling upon my profile! My name's Katya and I'm Russian living in the UK. I work in the retail, which isn't really my ideal job. I adore traveling, reading, photography, lemon tarts, tea, cream eclairs and adrenaline surges. I love to see all the different places, learn about exotic to me cultured and meet amazing people.

I'm not all that fussy about what types of postcards I receive. I'd be happy to get anything from you. The more panoramic you can make it, the happier I shall be!

If you're stuck, here's the list of things I'm currently obsessed with:

- Huskies
- Science
- The outer space
- Astronauts
- Victorian Europe
- Steampunk
- Books
- Wildlife
- Tea
- Classic bikes (e.g. Harley Davidsons)
- Winter Olympics/winter sports (e.g. ice hockey, snowboarding, figure/ice skating, etc; preferably action)

I'm also more than happy to receive the following:
- Landscapes
- Cityscapes
- Historical figures from before 1940s
- Handmade postcards

But please no postcards featuring:
- Celebrities
- Other well known people like presidents and royal families ruling after 1940s
- Monkeys or primates in general. Lemurs are more than fine, though!
- Advertisement
- Greeting cards for Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc, etc. But scenes of snowy fir trees and (yellow) fluffy chicks in the grass are more than welcome!

It would be even more awesome to have a personal message from you on the postcard. It can say anything, whatever you feel like writing to me at the time, maybe describe the weather or a view out of your window or, maybe, a little bit about yourself, if you feel like it. I'll be grateful for anything. If you're happy with the choice of a postcard, I'll be happy to receive it. Simples ;)
