I received this postcard from Belgium! Actually, it’s more like Belg-yum! ‘Cause we’re talkin’ about cuberdons today! Cuberdons are the conical candies you see here. At first I thought they were those plastic granules used in manufacturing. These look tasty so I’m glad that’s not the case! Cuberdons are Belgian […]
Here’s another postcard from the same sender (from Malaysia)! Featured is a glorious shot of the Cameron Highlands, located in the state of Pahang. Pahang is located in Peninsular Malaysia – in other words, it’s in the part of Malaysia that borders Thailand to the south, as opposed to East […]
This postcard came to me from Malaysia! (Different from the bundle I talked about earlier!) “In a world of locked rooms, the man with the key is king” – anyone recognize this quote? It is a quote from James Moriarty of the Sherlock Holmes series! I’ve not read any of […]
I veered off from the Malaysian anime bundle for a while but now here is card #6! I thought I had posted about this show before but it appears I’ve not done so. This is one of my ABSOLUTE favorite anime shows: K-On! (That’s pronounced “Kay-Own”, BTW; also, the exclamation […]
Sharing another postcard from China! This is a piece of artwork created by Fan Zuoxin titled “The Rat with Happiness”. If I’m not mistaken (and well a lot of the times I am, but that’s beside the point right now…), this is an outline of a paper-cut. No, I don’t […]
I received this postcard from China! I featured a couple of cards from this informative series sent by a different sender – this one features the blue and white pottery of China! This type of pottery is thought to have originated over a millennium ago; it became popular in the […]
I received this postcard from the Philippines! This is a look at Taal Volcano, located in Batangas province. Batangas is found in Luzon, the largest and northernmost of the islands. This is a bit of a crude comparison but Luzon’s shape reminds me of the profile of the alien from […]
Here is an older postcard I received from Lithuania! This one is a work by Šarūnas Miškinis, a graphic artist, illustrator, art teacher and musician born in Vilnius (Lithuania’s capital). This is a painted work by him that I believe is part of a series of Christmas postcards. I seem […]
I recently received this lovely meetup postcard from the Åland Islands! I have shown a few of these meetup cards in years past – this is the 5th one of its kind! It’s so great to see that in-person meetups are becoming a thing again 🙂 Thank you so much […]
Here is a postcard from China! What’s shown here is Xiaoshang Bridge, a bridge located in Henan Province (which is kind of in the western part of the country). This bridge is oooold, dating back as far as 584 A.D.! As you can probably tell, this isn’t a very large […]
