Wow! It's amazing how large the post of Rotterdam is, isn't it? Apparently, it's the largest one in the world.
Look! It's the stunning lighthouse Porer in Croatia. I'm still fascinated by it, it almost takes up the whole island!
I love panoramic postcards! This one shows Mount Egmont in the Taranaki countryside on New Zealand's North Island.

This is a postcard from Tunisia. I love it so much because there's an amazing recipe on the back which I'm going to cook now!
I was long wondering what to do with those ad cards I got from Brazil. They're blank and I don't really like them, but in the end I decided to keep them. First, because I could never throw a postcard away and second, because they're still an example of a culture, of ads in Brazil.
This is Riga, the capital of Latvia. On the left, you see a panorama of the city, the three pictures on the right show the National Opera, the Blackheads House and the Dome Cathedral.
This is the Tasman Glacier on New Zealand's South Island. It's the biggest glacier in the country and you can land on it with a plane and do a guided ski-tour down it. The Tasman Glacier was named after the explorer Able Tasman (who also has a national park in New Zealand named after him). It turns into the Tasman River and then ends in Lake Pukaki.
This is the Saint Louis skyline in the USA. The Gateway Arch you see is the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial. You cannot see it here, but the arch stands in the middle of a 90-acres park.
This ship is called Ukko Pekka and it is the last sea-going Finish steamer. You can find it in the area of Turku.
Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights, are created by light molecules dancing in the air. What a poetic reason for those beautiful lights to exist.
This is a postcard from Hong Kong. The photo on it shows an airplane starting from the old airport, which was closed in 1998. Interesting how close to the buildings it is.
