Gifts from Taiwan

Accidentally I missed one letter - firstly I didn't see the code for Postcrossing, so I didn't consider it to put here, but then I found the code, so I could registrate this postcard and now I'm writing a post and show you my really nice postcard and gifts. 

FROM Taiwan

Yes, I got an other card from Taiwan :D and not only a card, but a tea bag, a coffee, a card with some Taiwanese sweets on it (unfortunately it's in Mandarin, so I couldn't really read it, but yeah, I asked people to send me something in their own language, so... I should learn Mandarin!), and stamps. And the postcard is also really beautiful, it's glimmering! 

I tasted the tea already and... it was a little bit weird, but good. A few years back I got a tea bag from my Korean penpal, it was something like peanut tea :D Of course it wasn't a peanut, but it was something different than tea in Hungary. I haven't tasted it before. And I nor could read what kind of tea it was as it was in Korean :D I love these Asian gifts so much! I would really like to go there once and spend all my existing money on gifts only :D

First received postcards

Finally it was time to get the first postcards back! *.* After I returned back to Hungary from Germany, I found 4 nice incoming postcards from Postcrossing. Please have a look at them:

FROM Taiwan


FROM Japan

On the picture you can see the Kiyomizu Temple from Kyoto. I'd really like to go there, because I have a friend in Kyoto, who was an intern in India, in the same company like me. Above that I'm interested in the Japanese culture as well, and the cherry trees are really beautiful in bloosom during the spring *.*

The sender is from Kobe. 

FROM France

FROM Canada

This card was a surprise to me. I knew that in North America we can find a lot of cities named like other cities in Europe, but I never thought that once I'll get a postcard from one :D so now I got one from London, Canada :) By the way, I have been in Bristol before, in Connecticut, USA. :D The amusement park is there where we usually go with the summer camp.

So now I'm waiting for 3 other cards, which hopefully I'll receive soon :)  

Back to Hungary

Aaand, here I am! As I thought many of my postcards reach their destination, so I could ask for more addresses, wohoo! Actually, after I wrote my last post one of my postcard was registered, and I asked for a new address immediately. Unfortunately I was so lazy and a little bit busy with packing to Germany that I didn't want to write a new post about that. Instead I write now, and I include all the postcards I'm about to send in these times. 

TO France 

The girl was looking for pictures from nature, so I decided to send her this one. This place is located in Szigliget, in Hungary, which is one of the most beautiful place in Hungary in my opinion. There is a big forest where you can walk a lot and of course you can find this small waterfalls, but probably the biggest and most beautiful one in Hungary. 

TO Taiwan

The girl likes getting postcards about stadiums. I was in Hamburg, in Miniatur Wunderland, where I could find this postcard for her. I guess in Hungary it would be a little bit hard to find a postcard with a stadium on it, but there I could find it fortunately :D By the way, Miniatur Wunderland was really beautiful, it had more countries in small: Austria, Switzerland, USA, Germany, Scandinavia... and they are about to make the Italy session. There were a lot of model trains and even a model airport with taking off and landing planes. They were made with a lot of details. There was a brochure which included some funny things we can find anywhere in the grounds, like a couple who are making love, "visitor of Santa", where a snowman comes out from the toilet and Santa is next to it... etc. Unfortunately I couldn't check these as I had a meeting with a girl from Couch Surfing, but maybe next time I'll go back and check everything :D Of course if Italy sessions is done.  

TO Germany

The woman loves Disney, so I sent this postcard. I love it too, my favourites are the Lion King and Pocahontas, but I find Brother Bear also really cute. You must know that my natural hair is blonde and curly. So, when I was young, around 5 years old, I always wanted the hairdresser to make me a hair like Pocahontas has :D I was always very sad when she told me that it's impossible. 

TO Russia

The Russian girl would like to get some animal postcards - look at that cute penguin! :) In this nice weather I shouldn't send any postcards with snow on it, but anyway! :D 

TO Hong Kong

Last, but not least, my 5th postcard is going to Hong Kong. The girl likes music, so I send this art from Sándor Bihari. I like music as well, and in elementary school I used to play the recorder and the clarinet! I really miss them, though I preferred playing the recorder than clarinet.

Missing Miami

A new postcard arriveed to its place - the German one, as I expected :D So I asked for a new address, and I got a girl from Belarus! Unfortunately in Budapest I was out of nice postcards, so I decided to wait till coming home and look for a postcard from my collection. I found this. 

TO Belarus

The girl asked for a postcard which has sea or sunset on it. I found this postcard and decided to send this for her. To be honest I have no idea what story I could write to this postcard, as my last post was also about the USA, so I won't start writing about it again :D But yeah, I have to admit that I really miss this city, though it was pretty hot and I got a horrible sunburn on the last day. Of course I used suncream in every 15 minutes, but it seems that wasn't enough for my body :D By the end of the day I became a lobster :D and I had so bad pains :'( Hopefully I won't experience this in Hawaii, but I guess my hope is just nothing :D I'm not so sure about that I will use the suncream in every 15 minutes for 2 weeks, while I am there, but lets see :D

Ohhoo, and I'll never forget that bad public transportation, where buses never say which station is the next and we got lost with my friend, went to out of the city and needed to wait for 2 hours till we could go back to Miami :D Now, if I think about it, I find it really funny, but in that moment it was very annoying. 

Unfortunately I have no clue when I can write next time. I'm going to Hamburg and Bremen, Germany on Tuesday, and I return only on 19th April. I hope by that time all my postcards will be delivered and I'll get some in return as well :) 

Happy Easter for everyone, and see you again after 19th April! :)
