Hi,
I am Valeriya, I am originally from Moscow, 2 years ago I moved to Turkey. I love travelling and learning foreign languages. I finished university studying theoretical linguistics and Chinese language. =） I lived in Shanghai, China for one year studying there. In October 2011 I got married to a Turk, so now I'm learning Turkish.
I like cards of any kind, feel free to send crazy ones. Although, most favourite are:
cards with with calligraphy, letters and writings, in any language
vintage and retro-style cards,
black and white photos or sepia photos
Jip en Janneke (I have No.40 and No.36)
OLD-STYLE MAPS!!!
card, congratulating on any holiday in your language (if it's a holiday specific for your country it can be even better!)
traditional food, clothes
anything you find cute, beautiful or funny =)

My least favourite are multi-view cards.
I like cards with and without envelopes, doesn't matter.
On the other side of the card you can advice me a movie that you love or you've watched recently, or maybe a recipe of your favourite dish. Describe a room you're in right now, or mention some interesting facts about your country and your culture. Everything is welcomed!!
German speakers, PLEASE write to me in German!

除了英文之外我也会中文，请来自中国，台湾，香港，澳门等等的朋友们明信片上用汉字！
Specially for postcrossers from Russia:

I don't have a scanning device, so if you have, before sending a card please scan it and upload a picture here. anyway, if you don't, I'll take a picture of your card with my camera (but it looks online much worse than a scan, of course)

Happy postcrossing!
