Hi! :) My name is Megan, and I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, specifically in San Jose, in California, USA. I was born in New Mexico, in the southwestern USA, and moved to California for college.

I am a graduate student currently working toward my Ph.D. in geophysics and planetary science. I study magnetic features on the surface of the Moon, and also the long-wavelength shape of the Moon.

My main hobby is dancing ballet. I started dancing when I was young, was in many productions, but then stopped when I got to college. Recently I have picked it back up again :)

Another one of my hobbies is calligraphy and hand-lettering! I have always had a weakness for beautiful stationary, cute pens, pretty handwriting, and getting letters in the mail. I'm so glad to have found Postcrossing! :) I'd like to expand my calligraphy/lettering skills into drawing and painting, so I am also working on learning how to make sketches of things that I see in my everyday life (people, flowers, buildings, cars, etc.) and to do watercolors.

I'd love to receive postcards that are unique to where you live! Something showing the scenery, the food, the clothing, the architecture, and so on. But please, no advertisement postcards.

Thanks for reading, and happy Postcrossing! :)
