Hello and welcome to you!
Hey there!Thanks so much for visiting my website.
My name is Marine, I'm a French, currently living actually in Kobe, Japan.
I'm very proud to present you my website "OOOO", which is a project that's near and dear to my heart, born from the passion I have for Japan and for postcards.
In 2013, I subscribed to a website called Postcrossing, thanks to whom which anybody can receive postcards from all over the world, (almost) for free. That's when I started to send and receive postcards from random people from the USA, Germany or India, Then that I had my first encounter with the Japanese Gotochi Cards.
When you think about "postcards", I bet you imagine rectangular, banal with pretty simple design postcards, right? But Japanese Gotochi Cards are colorful, terribly cute, it's easy to understand what they depict. They are quite big and have an original design. Because there's an explanation of what the postcards depict, they're instructive too! I couldn't resist to their charm and started to collect them!
At this time, Gotochi Cards weren't sold on the internet, but could only be bought in Japan or received through exchanges. And because they're region-limited, they're very much appreciated and popular amoung postcard collectors and Japan culture lovers amateurs.
As my collection grew, I was animated motivated by two desires :
* Introducing to people know about the Gotochi Card, not even only foreign people but also make Japanese people know about it
* Introducing to people know about all the great and traditional aspects of Japan, about the delicious and regional food, about Japanese History and literature, about the beautiful, the modern or and the hidden places of Japan.
It's with this enthusiasm that I'm starting my website and want to share my passion with you, and hope to send a piece of travel, a piece of Japan to you.
living actually in Kobe Currently living in Kobe (I think you did a literal translation here. The French word "actuellement" and the English word "actually" are false friends, and they do not have the same meaning. In English, "currently" means "at the present time" but "actually" means "in reality / in fact / truthfully". ).

make let people know about the Gotochi card
not even just foreign people
but also make let Japanese people know
In English, we would say "to let somebody know" which is a colloquial way of saying "to inform somebody about something / to spread the news about something".
We would not normally say "to make somebody know" because that sounds rather violent and forceful, as though you are going to oblige somebody to learn something against their will.
