a mail from the other side of the world

came to me this mercredi! It's from Belarus, from a postcrosser named Lena. She is so nice and pretty. So here is why she sent me a mail (for those who have read my last post, I've talked about this but for those who haven't, here it is) ....

So there is a postcard that becomes a favorite of some postcrossers, shows a tribal statue from Irian Jaya (or Papua), Indonesia. It's actually a mummy of a 'war God' in Papua, and for some who adore the tribal life, it's gonna look very beautiful and adorable. This is what that card looks like:

well, it's not very 'pretty and adorable' for me

But then, a woman named Lena says that she would like this card in her collection. So I said 'I could send you one' and I searched it where I bought it.. et voila! It's still sold there, in Sarinah Thamrin, 6th floor (if I'm not mistaken, well for who wants to search it, it's located on the top floor of Sarinah, in front of a cashier). And after that, she said that she'll send me something to reply my goodness :p, and she send me a mail! She was so funny, she said I should check my mailbox (I told you before, I haven't got any mailbox haha) often because she sent me a surprise! And after a lifetime waiting, haha kidding, I got that mail in my house!

Surely it takes a very long time to arrive. The postal stamp told me the sending date: 3th January 2011, yet it's arrived in my house in 9th February. Haha it takes more than a month! But what she said to me is true, it's a surprise! For me it's a very nice and special mail, because so much good thing is in that envelope. She sent me an adorable gift card, so many cute stamps, a well-made-concept photo (i believe she made it herself, she said in her postcrossing profile that she's a photographer) and two piece of paper money, 10 BYR (Belorussian Ruble) and 50 BYR. It's just amazing! I always love that kind of cadeau!

So this is how her mail looks like when it's arrived..

cute stamps, eh?

However, this one is just lovely because it really is a mail, it comes from another country and I feel glad :D Next, I'll show you how that adorable card looks like. It's amazing.

and this is the inner side! cute poppies :3

this is the outer side

Yay, it's cute and adorable, right? So much poppies (or daisies? I forgot haha) flowers in that card, and it's just awesome :D I cant explain how much I like that card. And she wrote me a letter, telling me that she's so pleased to meet someone like me in the internet *blushing* and yeah, here comes the money:

50 BYR

 10 BYR

Haha actually when I checked the currency converter about the amount of this sum,I don't understand what could the Belorussian people buy with this piece. And the last one is the photo she gave me. I belive this is a piece of her artworks, check it out:

she wrote nothing on it, but sure it looks tasty and refreshing!

After all, thank you very much Lena, I really appreciate this mail! Truly, I really like it because there are just so many surprise you gave to me, and I like it! I'm so grateful too finding a friend like you. Thank you very much, postcrossing!
