New Country tag - Latvia

Ya!!!! Riga is the capital and the largest city in Latvia. My first postcard from Latvia!

New York City, San Francisco and Seattle

Three major cities in United States = so similar and so different. Love them all but for all different reasons.

SF - for sunshine and fog, for hills and friendliness.

NY - for restless and diversity, for culture and heavy tourists traffic.

Seattle for rain and uniqueness, for coffee and everything NorthWest

Love those three!

surprise in mailbox from wish list

Wish list is working!!
 if I ever thought that there's no reason to post postcard that I want, I'll never think that again.  Few months back I wrote this. And viola! yesterday in the mailbox I had a surprise of the lifetime. Well almost ... if not a lifetime, then pretty close. Igor - my dear friend from Ukraine (don't know how) found this exact postcard and send it to me!!!
Now I'm proud owner of this postcard from Moldova :) it's a new country tag too!
Ask and you will receive!

so-I-don't-like-them-postcards

I think I said it before, and here it is again... I don't "get it" artsy postcards... I just don't. Paintings, watercolors, vintage all is foreign language for me. I'm not even going to create a tag for those postcards. Two first two from USA and two others is from Canada.
Sorry guys, but it's just not me.

Send me some touristy looking postcards and you'll made my day. If your card has a city / country / state nome on it I'll owe you big!

Enough said... here's my so-I-don't-like-them-postcards :)

Very Jewish Note

I love all my friends and all postcards are dear to me. But please please please, remember that I don't celebrate Easter. I'm Jewish and have no appreciation for all bunnies and eggs and etc.

I'm not going to throw your card away, but I'm not going to thank you either :)
to save you and me, just stay away from any mainstreamed holidays postcards.

Thank you and I hope I didn't offend anybody.
