Russian Christmas

Yeeeey! A new card arrived! It comes all the way from Russia. I got this lovely Christmas card from Natasha. When I read the card, I didn’t expect that she is just 14. Her English is brilliant!

I really, really like it that she sent me a Christmas card. The tree looks very classic which I prefer by a Christmas tree. I love Christmas so you can send met Christmas cards the whole year!

Thank you again, Natasha!

Storks and Cauliflower

Last Thursday have sent this card to Anna in Russia. (are all Russian girls named Anna?) She wrote on her Postcrossing profile that she likes colourful cards. I think this one is colourful.

You can see a stork with a baby in his mouth. I wrote about the Dutch traditions to tell little children that they were found in the cauliflower or that they are brought by a stork.

I love stork tradition. You can see storks everywhere when there is a new born in a house. Do you have traditions like this in your country as well?

From............. Russia!

Saturday I received this postcard from Roman. He lives in Voronezh, Russia.

I’m a very curious person so I really want to know what I see on the card. Does anyone know what the red pyramid is?

Goodmorning Russia

I asked for an address on Postcrossing this morning. It’s always a surprise to who and which country you have to send a postcard. Today it’s to Anna in Russia. Russia is a big country with lots of Postcrossing members so I have to send to Russia a lot. (Just like the USA)


Anna said on her profile that she likes babies, so I hope she likes my card to. I think the little clothes are cute.

I like to learn something about another country so I have a list with facts about the Netherlands. This is what I wrote on Anna’s card:

The Netherlands are 6.7 meters below sea level, at its lowest point, which is a polder near Rotterdam. When you land at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, you are actually four meters below sea level.

If you are a Postcrossing member: What do you write on your cards?

Just Love...

Here are a few of my favorite postcards I got from Postcrossingmembers

So, as you can see, I like vintage and cute cards. I got the card with The Mistery Of The Brass Bound Trunk from an old woman from Canada. She told me that it's the cover of a book she read more than 50 years ago. How cool?!

What kind of cards do you like?

Happy Birthday Olya!

I always like it when I can send a birthday card. So I was really happy when I got the adress and saw that Olya's birthday is on 12 November.
This is the card I sent:

I used a special Postcrossingstamp from PostNL as birthdag gift. And this song is for you, Olya. It's a Dutch birthdaysong.

Поздравляю!
(Congratulations!)
