Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and  Spring

I like this ethnographic postcard "Belarus folk holidays and celebration".

My favourite maxicard in the world and the cutest Koala ever! :)

Actually, I bought this card from Australian Bush Babies series 2011 on eBay. Because it's already a collector's item, which is very hard to receive from Australia poscrossing members.

P.S. But, I have a good news to tell you! Australian Bush Babies II - maxicards & stamps & coins - were released by Australia Post on 2 April 2013. And this time my favourite baby animal is Wombat. :)

Today is the 1st day of Spring. And today I've received an amazing Gotochi card - my favourite one. ^^

Nara Yoshino cherry blossom 2012.

I must confess that I'm obsessed with sakura in bloom.

Mt. Yoshino is famous for its many thousand of sakura trees.

Breathtaking!!!

P.S. Arigatou, Kaori!

Snusmumriken (Snufkin) is my favourite character from the Moomin books.

I like his philosophy.

"I own everything I see and everything that please me. I own the entire world".

"Today we must do something very special, for it will be a glorious day".

I like this postcard from China. I have two identical cards from different persons. But I'm glad about it because this illustration is so beautiful.

The great classical Chinese novel "A Dream of the Red Chamber".

Season's Greetings from Japan. =^.^= 

I love all these little Santas at the Nagoya Castle. What a perfect combination of the different cultures!

Sakura in bloom and Christmas spirit. Like a dream! I'm in love with this unique card.

Arigatou! Keiko! ♥ 

I adore Scandinavian Christmas illustrations.
