City postcards to Russia

I really wanted to write a post into my blog today, as I have a day off. We're 2 in the camp, and totally bored. Ohh, yes, I'm in the USA now for a week already, so I stopped doing Postcrossing for a few months. I still have 2 cards left which I haven't showed you guys, and I also received a card. All of them are Russians. 

FROM Russia

Anastacia, the Russian girl started and ended her letter with some Hungarian words, so I was very glad to read her lines. She lives in Chelyabinsk, which didn't sound familiar to me, but she mentioned in 2013 a meteor falled in her town. That's a little bit more similar to me, to be honest :D She put some UNESCO stamps on the envelope, which unfortunately I don't see, because I'm not at home :( but I'm very excited to see it in person and save it in my collection. 

TO Russia

One of the Russian cards goes to a girl who likes Europe. As I have a lot of Helsinki postcards at home, I decided to send her this one, and wrote about my experience in Finland, where I spent 5 months as an exchange student. Of course I stayed in Helsinki, the capital of Finland. I really liked being there, though the city can be visited in about a day. But I liked walking in front of the white church, which is the most popular attraction in Helsinki. 

TO Russia

The another Russian girl loves New York! It was the best moment to send a New York card for her, as I have more postcards from New York than from anywhere else, thanks to the 15 for $1 kind of sales. Because of this sales I bought a lot of postcards in my 1st and 2nd year as well. So this card shows the Rockefeller Center, which is a very popular spot in New York. Personally I haven't been there, I planned to go there in my 3rd year, but somehow it didn't come to happen. Instead of this building I visited the Empire State Building and the World Trade Center. If I have some days in New York this summer, before going to home, maybe I would go up there. 

This is all for now. As I have a break from Postcrossing, probably I won't show you any cards in the next few months. In this moment I have 7 cards traveling in the world, and it seems some of them don't really want to reach their final destination, mainly a Polish one, which is traveling for 51 days already. I guess it got lost or something like that. I will wait till the others arrive to their destination, and write to the girl whether she got my card yet. If not, I'll try to order some postcards from Amazon - I found very cute ones, so maybe I'll treat myself (and of course my Postcrossers) with some.
