Another swap with Saori in Japan!

The last card is also the third swap card with Saori in Japan. The two cards arrived about 3 days ago. I wonder how they can be delivered separately...

I just realised that the stamp is from an old Japanese animation (anime), Lady Oscar. I used to like it a lot! :) This Itsukushima Shinto Shrine card adds up to my Japanese UNESCO WHS collection. Yay!

Sankyu ne, Saori-san! ^^

Another tag card from Bihong in China!

A tag card also came today, from Bihong in China. I tagged her for the second time in You Choose UNESCO WHS Tag in Postcrossing Forum, and chose this card of Ancient City of Ping Yao. This card arrived after approximately 2 weeks journey, fast for mail from China!

Swap with Ruedi from Switzerland!

A swap card with Ruedi from Switzerland! He is also the one who sent me the Liechtenstein card. We agreed to swap 2 cards, one from Liechtenstein, the other from Switzerland, so that I can use the two stamps sets he like :) This card reached here in about 22 days I guess.

It shows the St. Gall Convent, a UNESCO Site in Switzerland. My first site in Switzerland! And the Valentine heart stamp is so pretty :) Thanks, Ruedi!

Card #38, BY-765429

Only 4 cards arrived today, including this one official card, sent by Ksusha in Belarus. This one arrived quite fast, considering it's from Belarus, it took about 28 days.

It shows a bison, the national symbol of Belarus. But somehow I think it's rather scary, maybe because it's close-up? However, I love the Christmas stamps a lot :)
