Waikiki

15 Aug

postcardAug_017

 

Another jaw-dropping postcard from cindi (iheartmail). For some it could be just an ordinary postcard.

But for me, it is awesome! Cindi told me that whenever they travel to Oahu, they stay in Waikiki. She also mentioned that the streets are lined with many shops and restaurants and that she find it lovely. (well i think it surely is!)

And who doesnt love FIREWORKS? Yes! They have it every Friday!

 

Kyiv

15 Aug

Alex (oswald27 on instagram) sent me these Kyiv postcards.

When I wrote her my postcards, I told her that a good friend of mine is living in Ukraine. I met her 2 years ago in Stuttgart and she went back to Ukraine in 2012.

Kviv Nezalezhnist Square

I am aware that Kyiv is the capital city of Ukraine. But I am bot familiar with any of its Landmarks. I want to know more about different places so I decided to read something more about Kiev. I found out that this is actually called “Maidan Nezalezhnosti” or “Independence Square” .. But it is known for “Maidan” which means “square”.

Another shaped card from Europe. πŸ™‚
Thank you Irma!

I have been dying to see Croatia. Its on my list of places I really wanna visit. Well, living in Germany holding a Philippine passport, obviously I will need to go to Croatian Embassy to obtain a visa. And its something I am always scared to try.. I feel like they dont have any reason to give me a chance.
ooppss but not anymore since Croatia is the newest member of EU πŸ™‚

#81 “BC Place and Science World at night”

17 Jul

sent by dear friend DanielleΒ She probably knew that I am still and always amazed with all these skylines at night and so she sent me something special.

She has a big contribution on my collection. And believe me– she sends the cutest cards ever! Not to mention the stickers that makes it colorful and pleasant to read. Whats amazing with us is that – we talk via email and instagram– yet we still have a lot to tell each other via postcard swapping.

Check out her blog!

My 12th postcard via Postcrossing πŸ™‚

sent by Martina of Czech Republic.

It was nice of her that she actually read my profile. Some postcrossers in Postcrossing.com dont read profiles at all. Martina is interested in travelling. Well who isnt?
