Czech Republic

April 28, 2017


This great card came from the Czech Republic and was sent by Tomas.   He wrote a nice, long message on the back of his card, which pleased me to no end.

He wrote,

Hi Helen,

My name's Tomas. I'm 34 y.o. man

from the Czech Republic. With my  

family living in small village

named Tlucna near of Pla[can't read the rest], centre

of the Western Bohemia.  I working 

in Prague, capital of the CZ. I'm

police officer.  My favorite hobbies are 

history, genealogy, sport and books.

I love famous novels of Franz

Kafka.  This card is about his

word in his novels.  I hope you'll like it.

Happy PC :-)

Tomas

The stamps are interesting too.  I've seen the flower one before, but I don't think I've see the other one.  It's too bad that one of them is torn.  

This is the last Postcrossing card that I will receive for a while as I still haven't re-activated my account.  I have been buying postcards recently though, and I am hoping to start sending them out soon!

Ukraine - Tea

April 18, 2017

I received this card from the Ukraine while I was off line.  I love it, which is why I want to share it with all of you!  It comes from Alexandra.  She wrote a lovely note on the back and used a Ukrainian Postcrossing stamp, so it was a lovely little treat for me at a difficult time.

She wrote,

"Hello Helen!  My name is Alexandra. I live in Ukraine in the southern city of Odessa.  I work as a florist.  I'm fond of creativity, I like to draw.  In my free time I learn Chinese and English.  And I dream to visit Japan, China and Korea.  

Have a nice day and good luck."

This Postcrossing stamp is truly lovely!  I like how the design on her sleeves looks a bit like stamps. It is bright and colourful and sweet.  Good job Ukraine!
