Yulia send this card from The Netherlands where she has been living for 7 years. She has visited Japan, but probably not up in my area. She noted on the back that she loves Roman Holiday a lot!
It's a great card and Audrey Hepburn is very popular here in Japan, so thank you!

Hubert sent this amusing card from Germany. He wrote that he likes walking in the countryside with his children, grandchildren and friends.
The stamps that Hubert used were great! I used to watch The Flintstones when I was younger so I liked that stamp!
This card arrived July 29, 2026
Marianne sent this card and wrote a friendly note telling me what each food on the front is. That was it!
She said from the upper left corner to right clockwise there is: lecon, palabok, tinola, lumpia, bistek, karekane, pritong isda, kinilaw, hipon, sinigang. (Any misspellings are probably mine due to misreading her handwriting.)

Nuria sent this card of the Canary Islands. She put a soccer player sticker on the back, which didn't leave much room for her to write a message.
She just said, " Tomorrow we play against Portugal and he [indicating the sticker of Nico Williams] is a really good player!"

Martijn sent this colourful train card from The Netherlands. He said that he was reading Les Misérables by Victor Hugo and a comic at the moment.
He used an interesting stamp on the card too, although it is a little hard to see through the postmark!

Dany sent this card of German author Bettina von Arnim who lived from 1785-1859. I looked her up but her Wiki wasn't very positive towards her.
Dany said that she studied Linguistics so she's interested in anything to do with languages and texts, and books. She said that von Arnim wrote about social and feministic topics in the 19th century. Her face even adorned banknotes and stamps!
