About April...
I was born in 1983 and live near Detroit, Michigan where I work as a world history teacher. At university I studied literature, history, archeology, and Russian.
I like to try new things and have had many hobbies over the years including travel, painting, playing polo, and fencing. Right now my biggest hobby is cooking and baking. What I like most is making French pastries and cooking soups.
Reading the messages is half the fun of getting postcards! I would enjoy hearing about anything you would like to share including fun facts about yourself, historical facts about your city, your favorite book, or a favorite recipe.
I love most kinds of postcards, but I would be particularly excited to get the following types of cards:
-Bears and foxes
-Fantasy and magic including mythical creatures and animals
-Ivy leaves (my daughter's name is Ivy)
-If you are from Russia Cheburashka or Gena!
-Beautiful scenery
-UNESCO Heritage sites
-Pictures of people with modern fashion or native dress
-Unique cultural objects
-Art and illustrations
-Archeology sites
-Beautiful architecture and buildings
-Old cities
-Nature, flowers, or animals
-Anything weird or unusual
