My name is Maya and I'm originally from Moscow, Russia.
My interests vary between science (physiology and neuroscience in particular - I am doing a PhD in ion channels), visual arts and literature both old and new.
If you know Irish or Scottish Gaelic, you may write me in these languages, although writing you back may be challenging to me. I am also interested in Germanic languages and mythology.

I would really appreciate cards with artworks (preferably from some local museum or a recent exhibition) or (advertisement) postcards from research institutes and universities, natural and medical history museums. Old postcards are very welcome too.
Regardless of what is on the "picture" side, I'd like to read a story in your card, no matter what the story is about. Write me about your favorite place, song, painting, some extraordinary person you know, it may even be a funny dialogue you've (over)heard. Write me why YOU were touched by whatever you're writing avout
I'm particularly interested in history of place names. If you know of a stone, a waterfall, a house etc. with some unique name (or nickname) feel free to write about it.
