Hi! 👋🏼 I'm Daria or quite simply Dasha.

I live in St. Petersburg, Russia and work as an interface designer at a bank. Before I took a design course and got this job, I had actually earned a bachelor's degree in Linguistics, which is how I learnt to speak Danish and Swedish 🇩🇰🇸🇪 It's a bit peculiar being a former humanities student in my new corporate tech reality, but I'm enjoying it! 💻

In my spare time, I like to cook and bake cakes, watch series, play video games, take care of my plants and do different crafts.

I love postcards with handwritten messages or drawings on them. If you're out of ideas as to what you can write, you can tell me a fun fact about your country/area or write about a song you love.

Here are some ideas as to what card I might like 👇🏼 Being surprised is also nice though, so definitely don't feel pressured!

✦ Your country's customs, folklore, traditional food and clothing, native people
✦ Natural landscapes, plants and mushrooms
✦ Birds, horses, frogs, monkeys, baby goats and sheep. Or any animals, really
✦ Food, cooking, vegetables
✦ Art, especially fin de siècle and applied arts (such as interior, graphic, industrial design, ceramics)
✦ Mailboxes, stamps and other mail-related things
✦ Tarot and astrology
✦ Harry Potter, The Moomins, Avatar: The Legend of Aang, Gravity Falls, The Owl House, The Legend of Zelda, Shrek, How to Train Your Dragon, Monsters Inc., Ratatouille
✦ LGBT+ (good idea to put it in an envelope to make sure it reaches me)
✦ Unconventionally shaped cards
✦ Handmade cards
✦ Vintage prints with the USA state names on them. I've got Pennsylvania, Georgia, Maryland and Alabama
✦ I generally prefer illustrations to photographs

I'll appreciate it if you skip typical touristic cards and multi-view cards.

Thank you for your time and effort ❤️ Looking forward to your card!
