Some people prefer not to make things. They prefer to collect them! In India, Maya Badal doesn’t collect coins or stamps. Instead, this teenage girl collects postcards!
“I know some people think postcards are rather old-fashioned, but I think they’re a good way to learn about different places,” Maya says. “I think it’s interesting to see the beautiful buildings and landscapes in foreign countries.”
Maya's first postcard shows the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang. Her dad sent it to her when she was five, and she liked it so much that she put it up on her bedroom wall! Now there are over one hundred postcards from thirty-two countries on Maya's walls. She dreams of traveling to these places in the future!
