About Vanessa...

Hi everyone, I was born and raised in Brittany, studied hotel management in Switzerland, went back to Paris for my first job and instead of suffering a nervous breakdown, went for a year out DownUnder.
Got back to my hometown after that, tried to get the hassle of the paperwork to settle in Australia, but I met my match and stayed in Brest.
I was lucky enough to travel a fair bit in my life, to meet up with friends from school in their respective countries (Sweden, Spain...) or for family gatherings (Turkey, USA, England...) or just because I love discovering new places, even more if they are just round the corner.

I've been collecting postcards for ages now, I remember buying them by packs of ten when I was a child, or just choosing a random one because the kitty was soooooo cute. I even have the old postcards my grandma used to keep. Now I enjoy mostly the ones showing the country itself, may it be countrysides or city skylines .
I heard of postcrossing only recently and I fell in love with the idea, bringing me back in time, when internet did not exist and I was so exited when a teacher would give us a penfriend from across the world (although I remember a greek one awaiting for my reply who had forgotten to give me his address :-( )

What else about me? I love cooking, for my family and friends, for two or fifty, just a soup ora bunch of complicated small bites and it is one the things I enjoy the most when travelling, discovering their culture and specialties.
I enjoy reading very much too, from Harry Potter (hudge fan) to Arto Paasilinna's books or Stephen King's...

Well, that's about it, I'll come back later check,if anything is missing.
Cheers for reading :-)
