Greetings!

My name is Charity and currently live in central Pennsylvania in the USA.

If you are looking to send me a postcard, I want to say thank you in advance! Please feel free to send subjects you enjoy and/or find beautiful & include a message explaining why they are meaningful to you. Talk about your hopes & dreams. If you like to tell secrets, I like to hear 'em. I promise I won't tell anyone! :-)

I'm not picky, and I appreciate any and all postcards I receive.

A few words about me: I enjoy traveling and have visited several states. I've lived in other states besides Pennsylvania including Maine, New York and Michigan. One of my lifetime goals is to visit all the National Parks in the USA. I have also traveled internationally to a handful of countries ... Canada, France and Switzerland. All beautiful with wonderful people.

I've worked as an engineer for about two decades in image processing, graphics & AI. I own small businesses in art & publishing. My interests are many & eclectic ... space & the night sky (astronomy, planets, stars, constellations, nebulae, galaxies, etc.), quotes, philosophy, photography, painting, digital art, drawing, jewelry, food (and an unhealthy love of ice cream!) / cooking / baking, reading / books, writing, animals & wildlife (cats, dogs, birds, foxes, wolves, bears, bunnies, etc.), marine life (fish, coral, plants, etc.), flowers, landscapes (during any of the four seasons), oceans / lakes / seas, sunsets / sunrises, volcanoes, trees / forests / woods, streams, waterfalls, trains, bridges, architecture / buildings, music, history, cityscapes (especially at night), textiles / sewing, knitting, crafts, glass artwork, maps / cartography, ships / sailboats, beaches, games / video games, mythology and many other things.

Thank you & have a wonderful day!
