Turkey

September 8, 2014

Selim sent this card from Turkey.  He writes a short message to me.
"Merhaba!

On this postcard, you will see some info about Lithuania.  I had a penpal from there.  I hope you'll like this postcard.

                                                   Greetings!

To be honest, I wasn't thrilled by this card.  I did thank the sender politely, but noted that since Turkey was a rarer country, I would much rather have received a Turkish card.  

However, I was surprised by something.  There was NO STAMP on this card!  The picture of the markings is below.  It took 47 days to travel to Japan as well!

It's rather disappointing...

And yet, I know these cards are very popular too.
