Week 5

Hello~
I'm still not ready with all scanning stuff and others but I came to update last week now... Postcards are now bit random order because I don't remember anymore which one arrivaled on which day but I think it's not matter now ^^'

My first postcrossing postcard from Israel! I used to have pen-pal from there so I have few postcard too but no this one :')



A Tulip postcard from Netherlands. So sweet and lovely~

One of my favorites, bike from Netherlands. My biggest fear but I love still ;') I placed this on my room wall~

AD-postcard from Germany, back side is full of German so I spent nice half of hour trying to figure it out ^^ I like to learn languages and I'm also curious enough to do it by that way~

A wonderful postcard from China (also postmark was Chinese) but with US-id code. My first one showing The Great Wall and it looks so... well, great!

A nice postcard (look, horses~) from Mississippi, United States



A Swap postcard from Minsk, Belarus. And there was a tulips stamps on it! Thank you for sending this :') I'll post answer tomorrow!



A thank you postcard from Ukraine! With cat-stickers (I used them to cover our address now ^^) Thank you so much! I'm so happy you liked postcard which I sent you :')

And that's all, I think. Tomorrow is new post day then. I was also sick last week and because temperature was around -26 celsius, I didn't dare to go outside :/ So I didn't get on my way to post postcards... But I'm not sick anymore so tomorrow I can go to walk outside~
See you!

It's Friday again

Hello~ Today was wonderful post day, I got five postcards!

All cards today

And countries are: Russia, Russia again, Netherlands, Belarus and China. In order first is from Russia and it was sent from Postcrossing meeting! They had one in Moscow at December. This was really nice suprise and I feel also very honoured to get one meeting postcard. Everybody who was there, thank you a lot! Hope you had a nice day there.
Another postcard from Russia was also wonderful! Painting of troika (by P. Kovalevky). Troika is traditional Russian way to drive horse and it's also very fast! But I think difficult to control. I hope to see someday troika by my own eyes and maybe try to drive it too (or maybe not... I usually drive max, two horses ^^'') Also this card's stamp was wonderful. There is photo of it later.
Then my lovely Netherlands, I love this postcard too. When I went to get post, this was left bit up so I saw it first and my thought was "oh, my mail box is growing tulips... wonderful!" I can't say more than I just love this postcard :') And there was postcrossing stamp on it! I took own photo of it. (little trivial fact: there is Finnish on this stamp. One those postcards have text "Talviset terveiset" which is Finnish and means "Winter greetings" How funny :') If you have postcrossing Europe-stamp you can see it too.)
From China I get lovely postcard with two cats. Absolutely cute~ I want own cat too but it's not possible now :'( But someday I'll give home for one or two cats (or three?)
And then there is wonderful swap-card from Belarus. I'll send you one back soon! Minsk looks actually very nice city... I would like to visit also there someday.

"From the Garden of Holland, a Tulip... Especially for you~"

It's Postcrossing stamp! Yay!

Really beautiful horse stamp from Russia. Love this too

2nd of January!

Hello! I got yesterday first postcards for year 2012! Today I didn't received post but well, yesterday there was four postcards on my post box so it was good :')

From 2nd of January

First one is from China, sent from Beijing. Next of it is nice Christmas card from Lithuania (oh my... I forget what is Lithuania's name in English... I was thinking about Lietuva ^^'')
Bikes are from Netherlands and that postcard literally made my day! I knew sooner or later somebody just have to send me bikes and now it happened ^^ That card is now on my room's wall.... reminding me about Dutch bikers... (I think I remember wrong but I used to say/hear "pas op de fiets" also in Belgium... But I'm not sure if I remember correctly ^^'' I need to learn more Dutch...)
Last one is from Australia. I have no lot of cards from there so this was also a nice suprise. Kangaroos are cute and funny looking animals, I think. (I didn't know they smells...)

Okay, see you next time!

Post of 7th and 8th of Dec.

Hi!

I was pretty busy yesterday so I didn't update my blog. But I'll do it now~

Yesterday I got two postcards! From Spain and Italy. I have not much cards from those countries so I was pretty suprised to get them on same day (oh well, I'm always happily suprised when I go to get post and there is postcards or letter or sometimes even packets! ...Packets are usually for my sister who is more active with letter friends than me. I got all postcards ^^ but anyway, I'm always happy no matter where posts are from.)
So, postcard from Italy is showing historical centre of city in Avellino's Province. There is also name "Calitri" so it's name of that city, I think. It seems to be located in Southern Italy. Very nice, have to remember that place if I visit Italy some day. Thank you for sending this me!

And Spanish one~ It's also view card and showing place in Gran Canaria, named Maspalomas. I know that place, there is lot of tourist who visit there every year. Also lot of Finns, I think. I'm never visited in real tourist places but why not some day. Thank you for you too!


Today I got three postcards! Russia, China and Italy

From Moscow, capital of Russia, I received very nice kitten postcard. Its looks so cute! And there is also stamps which I'm not seen before. They are shaped like snow flakes and looks pretty. I wonder if they are some new design? I got lot of postcards from Russia before and I don't remember to see those kind of stamps before. (oh, but now I looked closer... There is text "Russia 2009" so I suppose they are not new design... I'm not just got them before =D) Thank you for this!

Postcard from China is also great! I had very nice post day today.
This card is showing painting of Théodore Géricault. I didn't know name so I googled it and learnt that he was French painter and this postcard show his work named "The Epsom Derby". Thank you!

Then I received swap- postcard from Italy, Venice (in Finnish we wrote it "Venetsia" so I try all the time write it in English Venezia...Oh, it's like that in Italian, nice~) This is showing some of condoles. Venice is one of my number one must-to-visit place. It's been it since I read one wonderful book about it. I think I was 12 years old and I don't remember name of that book anymore but I remember some things. Canals, condoles, festival... I loved that book, I think I have to try to find it again.
Thank you too for sending this!

That was all today ^^ And btw, I was thinking of way how I tell about postcards here and I choose that I'll not say senders names or user names here because I'm not sure if they want it or not. So just for case I'll keep names off. I'm still sure that if you sent me postcard, you'll regonaise yours =D

Have a nice day / evening / night!
