With what all has begun?

        My name Yuliya. I'm 29. I'm actually an economist, but for the time being I spend my days at home with little baby-girl aged 1.5. I like spend time with my daughter, to do housekeeping. When I have free time, I like to read good books. Also I like to learn foreign languages (it is pleasant to me as different languages sound , they like a music). I take a great interest in psychology, computers. Also I dream to visit different country of the world.
               Several months ago I became the member of the project Postcrossing. Owing to it I have got many friends in different parts of the world, have started to collect beautiful cards from all over the world. I am very glad to this all. The only thing, that upsets me a little, that many of my new friends know nothing about my country. Therefore I had an idea to create this blog to tell about my Belarus.
        So, it is a page about the country in which I has grown and I live - about Belarus.
         Sorry for my English- I do not own it in perfection, but I hope very much, that owing to dialogue with my numerous English-speaking friends, I shall seize it much better.

Hi Yuliya,

Today i'm sending you a postcard (postcrossing) and found this blog in your profile. I love to read about other countries. It's a very interesting blog and don't think your english is bad! It's very good. I understand your comment about other people who don't know the name from your country, we are some of them. When the Olympics started we already didn't know where the Belarus was. But when I received your adress for the postcard I Googled and found out it is Wit Rusland (Dutch for: white Russia). That's what we learned at school!
So that must be the reason, a lot of people know your country but there is something with the name. I'm really happy I know the Republic of Belarus and where it is. An idea for your blog: some touristinformation. Is it something to go and visit your country? We went to Poland, Tjechië (don't know the english word for it), etc. but never thought about Belarus. You know: we Dutch travel everywhere, há há.

Bye,
Lydia from Deventer - Holland (The Netherlands)
