My name is Caryn and I live in the greater Boston area (Massachusetts, United States). I am in my late 20's. I work as a molecular biology specialist at a genome sequencing center. There, we sequence the genomes of all kinds of organisms.

Right now I am studying fine art black and white photography. I make my own prints in the darkroom by hand. If you make your own darkroom prints, I would love for you to send me one. In return, I will send you one of mine!

I love postcards with interesting stamps! I also welcome folded cards and postcards sent in envelopes (if that is your preference). In fact, if you have a holiday card from your country, I would love to have it in my collection. I also welcome birthday cards during the month of September!

Please try to write a personal message. Nothing makes me more sad than receiving a card that says "happy postcrossing" or "greetings from _" and nothing else. Here are some ideas:

-your favorite book
-your favorite subject in school
-A person that you admire

My wish list is here to give ideas. If you don't have anything on the list, that's OK, surprise me!

My Wish List:

-A photograph you took yourself (may be enclosed in envelope OR converted into a postcard). ***If you send me a black & white darkroom print you made yourself, I will send you one of mine in return!!!***

-Presidents/Leaders/Royalty/Heads-of-State from your country
-Harry Potter
-Star Trek
-Famous astronauts from around the world (esp. female astronauts)
-Space Travel/Outer Space/The Universe
-Black and White
-Great Apes
-Political propaganda (historical or contemporary)
-1970s/1980's
