This is a postcard that I just recently found in my room. It was sent to me in 1910. The photo on the front is of the fortress in St. Petersburg, my birthplace. I used to love looking at the fortress when I was younger. It is just so beautiful and empowering.

This is a picture of me with my dear Enrico at the Lyric Theatre in Milan. It was taken back in the late 1920s. I was always very fond of Enrico. You may have heard of him as Cecchetti, the man who created those magnificent ballet lines.

This must have been back in 1923. I was dancing an Indian ballet called Radha-Krishna. It was choreographed by Udar Shankar. He was also my dancing partner in this dance. I enjoyed this ballet very much. I loved experimenting with the Indian style.

This is a video of me feeding my swans at my Ivy House. I have become very attached to my swans ever since Michel Fokine choreographed the dance 'The Dying Swan' for me. Watching the swans allows me to see how they move and glide so that I can incorporate those qualities in my dance.

What a lovely picture! This must have been back in the 1920s, when I was dancing with the Australian Ballet. I'm pretty sure this photograph was taken during Act II of Giselle.

This is a photograph of me arriving in Sydney. That wasn't too long ago actually. It must have been about April 1926.

This was the costume that I wore when I performed 'The Dying Swan' for the last time in Paris. That was in May of 1930. I loved that costume very much. It was absolutely gorgeous.

This is a video of me dancing The Dying Swan with the Kirov Ballet. This dance was originally choreographed for me. I love everything about it, from the music to the choreography.

Here I am sharing my spotlight with Nijinsky. We were always paired

together while we danced for Diaghilev's Russian Ballet.

My debut with the Mariinsky Theater was absolutely amazing. I performed so many shows with this excellent theater. Some of my favorites included Giselle, Le Corsaire, and Don Quixote.
