Privet! Hi! Hola! Salut! Oi! Ciao!

My name is ELENA, and I live in a very beautiful Russian city of St. Petersburg. It's amazing and I'm head over heels with it :)

I do believe that travelling broadens the mind, so does postcrossing.
I enjoy meeting local people,communicating with them, trying national dishes and learning to cook local specialties. I adore reading books, writing journals, drawing sketches, scrapbooking, cardmaking, movies and LANGUAGES.

I'd been collecting cards for many years, so once I heard about postcrossing, I decided to join in...

I am so much fascinated by a GREETINGS FROM series postcards (https://www.postallove.com/Postcards/Greetings-from-series), so if there's such an opportunity, I'll be overwhelmed to recieve one!!! I've already received one of the Czech Republic from Petra, one of the Netherlands from Nikita and one from Vera in Russia!

There's a similar collection of postcards with Russian cities "Города России" (https://m.vk.com/album-99745609_221570225), I already have one from Красноярск (thanks, Elena!) and one form Москва (thanks to Tatiana), which are adorable))

I would be equally happy to get postcards with SIGHTS and PLACES OF NATURAL BEAUTY from your country, TRADITIONAL RECIPES and TRAVEL TIPS, ACTORS, MUSICIANS and CHILDREN, FOOD and BEVERAGES, VINTAGE and MAP cards, beautiful DRAWINGS, OLYMPICS and LITERATURE characters, BIRTHDAY cards in April/May and NEW YEAR/CHRISTMAS cards in December/January...

Anyway, I'm already grateful for any card in advance!!!

If you know SPANISH, FRENCH, PORTUGUESE or ITALIAN, write me an IDIOM, a FIXED EXPRESSION or a PROVERB in one of these languages as I am learning them and you'll make me happy! You may write smth in your OWN language as well ))

If you leave your address on, I'll send you a card in return.
And if you wish to send a THANK-YOU CARD, I'll be delighted.
I have already received a few, and it's been a pleasure!

Please put down the DATE on the card as it's often very hard to get it from the post stamp.

Happy postcrossing!

P.S.: Please, don't send me commercial postcards. Thank you.
P.P.S.: If you let me know, I may send you another postcard, and we will start exchanging directly.
