Julia sent me this oversized card in an envelope from Kyiv. I couldn't figure out how to show it in its entirety, so please use your imagination to combine the two pictures. The middle panel is pictured twice.
Julia writes that she loves Asia, especially Thailand and Japan. She likes anime and dramas, especially the anime of Studio Ghibli. Her favourite animated movie is My Neighbour Totoro:-) She likes to travel and enjoys going on photo shoots. With her husband, she has been to Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Japan in 2013. Unfortunately, she was only in Japan for two weeks. She didn't have time to visit many interesting places the last time she was here. She hopes that she can soon visit Japan again and stay much longer.
Her and her husband like to travel in the Ukraine as well. She says there is great, incredible, and unforgettable nature in the Ukraine. There are high mountains on the West, a wide plain on the East, a big [something I couldn't read] on the South, and a impassable green forest in the North. Kyiv is a big and beautiful city with many green parks and historical sights. It is fine to meet friends under the cherry blossoms. With love from the Ukraine, she sends her best regards.

A mysterious but beautiful stamp that was inside the envelope. This is quite big.

This is the year of the rat stamp.

Thank you! I should have guessed that, but I had no idea. Glad you told me :-)
It is a gorgeous stamp. I started postcrossing without ever thinking of the beauty of the stamps that would arrive through my letterbox. But so many people are kind enough to try to find different stamps for their cards.
What really surprised me, was this stamp wasn't fixed to the envelope or the card, it was loose in the envelope! I wasn't sure if it was a gift or if she forgot to put it on the outside of the envelope! In any case, I really like it too.
Thanks for visiting!
I like that stamp, too!
