She has been a member for 10 months (285 days).Hi there.Hmmm...something about myself? Well,I'm 28 years old and I'm currently an English teacher. I have been teaching English to K-8 for five years now. But this is not what I'd like to do for the rest of my life, thinking of going back to school for my postgraduate studies.
I'd also like to be in different countries. It's not that i have visited many but i have plans :)
Where i live is a little town, that is also the reason why i like being here. I don't like the hubbub of big cities; all this traffic and millions of people. Yet i live near İzmir which is the third biggest city in Turkey. It's only 15 min-drive from where i live, so whenever i feel like merging myself into the mightiness i feel free to go shopping or mere walking on the streets of Izmir.
Things that i indulge myself in?
I like to read and read and think and watch good movies (no mainstream junk)
I also love to dig myself into good animation stuff. Studio Ghibli's Japanese animation movies are on my top list and i believe Hayao Miyazaki is one of the greatest anime masters. I have collected most of the movies he and his studio have created. My favourites are: Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Princess Mononoke,Howl's Moving Castle,Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Laputa: Castle in the Sky.
I collect VIEW-cards (buildings, towns, villages, monuments, scenery, gardens,landmarks, tourist attractions, etc.), with the specific place-name printed on the card.
I would also like to receive cards with traditional themes (clothing, food, festivals etc. of your culture)
On the other hand, i'm open to handmade cards too and art cards (anime, collages, paintings, reprints, vintage, sepia) as well.
I'll appreciate if you don't send me cards with;
=> festive themes like X-MAS or
Easter greetings cards
=> advertisement/ free cards
=> child related themes
you can put some information about the city you live in(pros and cons of living in that place),the tourist attractions or other information about your traditions and/or anything about yourself.
I'd also like to receive my cards without envelops and stamped.
P.S. I'm always interested in private swap!
Send me a private message if you are interested as well :)
Thanks,
