I am going to Eastern Europe for a month this winter (as well as a few days in lovely Amsterdam)- and the Travelling Cambria thread gave me an idea.

Even if I can't host a travelling doll this month, I'd love to bring the frosty Russian magic back here to all of you. I've decided that I will send postcards to any doll who so desires. I love getting international mail- my friend Furby sends great cards from Hong Kong and China and they totally make my day.

Eastern Europe is off the beaten track, so I hope some of you would like to participate. If you would, PM me your doll's name and address (and in whose care to send the card) by December 15. If you are under 18, please ask for permission first. I will send postcards to each doll who requests them. Remember that mail in the former Soviet Republics is very, very slow and it could take up until a month to arrive!

When I lived there in high school, I sent a letter home from Yalta in April (our spring break) and it got to Wisconsin in July! The mail is much better now, of course. I would also send a postcard from Amsterdam if anyone would like one of those in addition. I will be staying in a small village between Amsterdam and Utrecht.

I hope this isn't a stupid idea!
