***I'M NOT A FAN OF:
- CITIES / CITY VIEW / TOURIST postcards
While I'm very curious about other places, and I love to travel, city views are not my favorite postcard images because they're so easy to find online
- RELIGIOUS / RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY
* IF YOU'RE CURIOUS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ME *
My life is full of contradiction:
- I'm Russian (born in Moscow) but grew up in the USA
- I have a degree in journalism, but my favorite hobby is dance and I work in business
- I am married with an 12-year-old daughter
My interests are very diverse, and I rarely have time for all of them - I often wish there were more hours in a day, or that I loved to sleep less :)
Here are some of the things I do:
- CALLIGRAPHY (if I have time I may write calligraphied messages on the postcards I send)
- TRAVEL a lot (I've been to India, Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Cambodia, Mexico, Russia, Poland, France, Austria, Italy, Spain) and learn languages (good German, decent French, some Spanish).
- DANCE: I've been studying Ballet and Hip Hop / street dancing styles for many years.
- TRADE BOOKS on http://bookmooch.com/
(so far I've sent over 80 books worldwide, received over 100).
- SNAILMAIL PENPALS
I have about 15 "long letter" penpals from around the world. I also trade Decos & Slams.
- COLLECT: postcards, limited edition sneakers, digital watches, books, vintage costume jewelry, porcelain dolls, Tarot decks, stationery.
