こんにちは：Konnichiwa !

Nice to meet you! I live with my husband in Osaka Prefecture, western Japan. We have two adult children, a son and a daughter. I'm a retired teacher.
I love looking at world maps. I've been interested in the world since I was a child, and enjoyed traveling a lot when young, but it seems to be getting harder for me to visit a foreign country.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading mystery novels or writing to my pen pals living abroad and at home.
Any card is appreciated, but NO retro / vintage and ad cards, please.
Here are some of my favorites ( ^ - ^ )

★ ( to Russian people ) Matryoshka dolls
★ Moomin characters
★ beautiful scenery
★ nature [ mountains with snow, flowerfields, fields, forests, lakes etc. ]
★ people [ (especially) children, women ]
★ national costumes / local traditional costumes
★ maps, flags
★ Royals
I'm looking forward to receiving yours.

Mitsuyo
