About Maria...

Hi! My name is Maria!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHEESE? I really want to know! I love cheese and I'm always curious what cheeses people like, and so I can get ideas of new ones to try.

I'm a graphic designer originally from Milwaukee, WI. I studied art & design at UW-Madison, and have a Master's in design from Pratt Institute (in NYC). I worked for a film advertising company for several years. Then I worked for a circus 2 years ago, where I met my amazing fiance, and now we live in Richmond, VA!

During high school I studied abroad in Tennenbronn and Hannover, Germany, and during university I studied in St. Petersburg, Russia and London, England. I've also been to Seoul (S. Korea), Amsterdam (Netherlands), San Jose (Costa Rica), Quebec (Canada), Cozumel (Mexico), Schaffhausen (Switzerland), Moscow (Russia) and Berlin, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Hildesheim, Frankfurt, Konstanz, Rotenburg and Heidelberg (Germany).

I'm happy to receive any card, but would especially love to receive cards with:

• cheese! (mmm... cheese)
• circus / carnival
• trains
• ice skating
• photographs of your city
• maps - any kind
• graphic design or art
• funny or unusual
• cards with bright colors and graphics
• USSR
• lighthouses
• nouvelles
• Volkswagen
• Olympics
• British royal family
• glittery or shiny cards
• movie posters
• Cheburashka
• advertising
• dogs / badgers / cows
• handmade postcards
• hotels / hostels / motels
• libraries
• or anything really! :) i'm not picky.

I LOVE stamps! I have been collecting them since I was 6. If you could include a pretty stamp, you'd make my day! My favorites are Olympics, flowers, art, cartoons, dogs, ice skating, and things like 'save the tigers', 'cancer awareness', 'anniversary of a historical event'...

Happy Postcrossing! :)

If you could possibly put the card in an envelope (if it doesn't cost extra!), that would be great! If not, that's ok! :)

If it's near any holiday, I'd love to get a holiday card!
