China - 31st of august 2010

On the card I received from China today you can actually see the cool and modern German hall on the world exhibition 2010. In 2000 it actually was in Germany and I went there myself :D



And those bird-stamps! Wonderful!

Finland - 3rd of december

This card is showing Helsinki by night and I have to say that it's actually even more beautiful there when it's dark. The white buildings around the cathedral (qhich you can't see on the card now) are shining as if they were the moon.



And the stamp must be one of the most awesome stamps I have EVER seen!

France - 26th of november 2009

This card is showing Le Pont de Normandie, which is located in between Le Havre and Honfleur, for those out there who know France a bit better. I have been to France quite often already but I can't remember being in the Normandie. Well, sometime, perhaps? :)

Switzerland - 25th of november 2009

The drawing 'Clair de lune sur l'Isle de St.Pierre' (1860, engl.: Moonlight on the St. Peter Island) was drawn by Johann Joseph Hartmann (1752-1830). I love the whole setting with the colours and the little boat there.

Fill in the blank friday

Uuuuh, almost forgot it's friday today! Over at the little things we do... it's fill in the blank friday again :)

1. The most adventurous thing I've ever done is good question. I'm boring! But probably it's going into a ghost house called Dungeon in Hamburg, Germany. It scared the shit out of me!


2. If I were a pair of shoes I would be something comfortable... maybe a pair of chucks? I'm not the shoe-kind-of-person, you know ;)

3. My preferred mode of digital communication is emailing. It is fast, free and you don't have to call people. I don't like calling, really. Plus you have everything written down and can check it up again.

4. I feel happiest when I can be home together with the one I love.

5. A little dream I have for my life is doing an exchange term abroad. If I'll manage is still not sure though.

6. The one modern convenience I could NOT do without is Internet. It's so plain practical and fast.

7. Music, movies, TV or books: Books. I rarely have time to read but I love books anyway and try to read as often and as much as I can.

Russia - 26th of august 2010

I came home late yesterday and then I found this nice card from Russia. It shows the Ivan the Great Belfry and Belltower in Moscow according to the card.



And look at those cool stamps!
