I'm not really sure what to say about this "card". Yes, it's made of thin cardboard, yes it has a note on the back, yes it was stamped, but I'm not really sure that I consider it a postcard. I know that some postcrossers like to have recycled cards or cards made from random stuff from a sender, but I'm not one of them. If I was, I'd say so on my profile. I don't.
However, [deep breath] I think the intention of the sender was good, and I do like tea related POSTcards, so I'm trying to be okay with this. I would never send something like this out personally...just don't feel it is a fair trade for some of the lovely and expensive cards that I send.
The sender writes, "Hello! I am sending you greetings from Greifswald/Germany! Greifswald is not very large about 56,000 inhabitants. There are a lot of students-nearly 10,000. That's why our city is very young and has a lot to offer culturally. Our university is one of the oldest in Central Europe. It was founded in 1456. I work in a public archive. I am a professional archivist. I like reading, I have a library with about 1700 books. I like BLACK TEA 'THIELE TEE'. All the best, HAPPY Postcrossing"
I really like the stamp. I think the Porsche is rather beautiful!
