Hello, everybody!
I'm extremely glad to join the postcrossing community! It's so exciting and fascinating to be in touch with the whole world!

A few words about myself:
I live in the Far Eastern part of Russia, in Khabarovsk (my hometown) located on the bank of the Amur River. I have two daughters & a grand-daughter. My younger daughter & a grand-daughter are postcrossers too.

My hobbies are embroidering (esp. crossstich), knitting,
reading English books (I adore Bronte sisters).

I'm interested in Fine Arts (my special love is for impressionists), arts & crafts, traditional clothing of various nations & everything which is connected with Great Britain & English speaking countries.
I'd be thankful if you choose any of these themes for a postcard you send.
