Memories from London

I haven't written for a while... and I have a good excuse why. Some of my postcards arrived to their destination, and I asked for newer and newer addresses. All the people asked for touristic postcards, so I kept sending cards from Budapest. I have already written so many posts about Budapest, so I didn't want to open a new post about my cards again :D I would rather waited till this time.


TO Taiwan

I had a big problem with this postcrosser. She is 8 years old and she wanted to get postcard about Frozen. I tried to look for one, and I also checked Amazon, so if I go to the USA I could have bought it for her, but unfortunately I didn't find any :( So I decided to send her a touristic postcard. I still hope she won't hate me because of this :$ :D

TO Russia

TO Lithuania

The girl's profile was totally empty, so I had no idea what kind of postcards she likes... so I sent this to her.

TO Germany

The guy likes buildings. As I'm out of touristic postcards from Budapest, I needed to send a card from a different city :D So I decided to choose this one. It's an abbey in Zirc, where there is a big library. I have already been there, but I was so young that I don't really remember what's inside, or how it is look like. I remember being in a library, probably I was in this one. If I'm right, it has a very big library with more than 10.000 books.

TO Belarus


The girl would like to get cards about London too. I have a lot of postcards about London, so why wouldn't I send it to her? I was there last year in March. I flew there from Helsinki for 4 days with 2 of my friends. I enjoyed staying there, though our "hotel" was awful. I have no idea how they could call theirselves a hotel. The bathroom was totally dirty, the rooms were old, the windows were bad: we could hear metros going all the time. Last, but not least, we heard every night people having sex next to our room :D -.-" Yeah, we selected the cheapest place on Booking.com :D since that time I never choose the cheapest place to stay, unless it has good ratings :D 

During those days I could go to Stamford Bridge, to Chelsea Football Club's stadium. That was really nice. And one of my friends joined me too, who was an exchange student also, but in London. Above the stadium, I visited the most touristic places, like everyone else: Piccaddily Circus, Tower Bridge, Madame Toussaud's, London Eye, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral, etc. I was very surprised how many Hungarians there are! We were asking for something in buffet with my friend, we were talking, and the assistant started talking in Hungarian to us. The same happened to us before in a Vietnamese restaurant, where both the waitresses were Hungarian. Now I can understand why people say London is the second biggest Hungarian city :D

I really hope to be able to post again. On Saturday I'm leaving to the USA, I don't think that I will do Postcrossing from there. So, for the summer I will stop writing this blog, but I will write my other blog about my adventures in the USA: http://doriamerikaban.blogspot.hu/ It's in Hungarian, so if you want to follow, don't hesitate to use Google Translator. I'm sure you'll have a nice time with reading it, my Finnish friends usually followed them, and they told me how funny it is when they try to translate it into English :D
