This Official Postcrossing card came to me from China! Forgive me if it looks like the picture is upside-down – the writing on the back is rightside-up this way, though I was unsure if the flowers should be pointed upwards or downwards This is what happens when my brain is […]
I got this postcard from Missouri! This was a card picked up during the sender’s trip to Missouri with her family – and it features Indiana, the Hoosier State! You can check out my April post for some info about this state: https://apostcardforyou.com/2020/04/for-the-last-time-whos-here/. But fear not, I’ll throw you some […]
This postcard reached me from Finland! This is a view of Rauma, a town located in the southwestern part of the country. Founded in 1442, it’s the third-oldest town in the country. Rauma is known for its paper and maritime (sea-based) industry as well as its bobbin lacemaking. You can […]
Here’s a cute Official Postcrossing card I received from Russia! Does this fellow/lass have a name? He/she is adorable as heck, holding that bagel/donut ever-so-shyly. Thank you bunches for sending me this postcard, Maria!
Gonna throw in some recently-received postcards before I continue with the bundle I’ve been posting about! Here is another adorable and remarkable meetup postcard from Finland! I regret to say… I missed celebrating the 15th anniversary of Postcrossing, so maaaajor shame on me for that. But the members of this […]
#3 on deck! Here are some lovely parasols… which look a lot like the umbrellas used for fancy drinks. Actually I think they probably are, given how thin the paper looks. That’s an incredibly close-up shot then. The only problem I have when these are served with drinks is that […]
Here’s postcard #2 of the unknown bundle! I know that “unknown bundle” bears a negative connotation, but I mean to criticize myself rather than the cards. ‘Cause these cards are rockin’! Love this artistic alphabet card, it’s adorable and filled with so many things to look at and admire! Thank […]
I received this postcard from… actually I don’t really remember where XD This along with a few other ones coming up were cards I received in 2013-ish, and they were blank in an envelope. Needless to say, I don’t have the envelope any more. My guess based on some of […]
Here’s a postcard from Scotland! Featured is the Waverley, the world’s last operating paddle steamer, traversing the waters of Millport Bay. I’ll talk a bit more about the Waverley later, but let’s first establish what Millport is! Millport is the only town located on the island of Great Cumbrae, which […]
This postcard came to me from Russia! This is somewhat of a shaped card featuring a drink of northern Russia – cranberry kvass! I had no idea what a “kvass” was… and apparently Microsoft Word recognizes the word, so between the two of us it wins the vocabulary test. Kvass […]
