TBT: Dreaming about paradise...French Polynesia

Every Thursday I'm looking back at a card that I received in the past
Today, I'm sharing with you this card from Tahiti, French Polynesia

On my card, you can see Mo'orea, which means 'yellow lizard'
French Polynesia consists of over hundred little islands 
in the South Pacific Ocean, and Tahiti is the capital


French Polynesia is known all over the world as a popular honeymoon destination
I'd be very happy to visit such a breathtaking island for my honeymoon :)

Stamps with special sea-snails on them

It's true, they really are from Tahiti ^^
Do you like it too? Where would you go on honeymoon, if money was not an issue?
Would you choose a paradise like this too?

Thanks again for this postcard Sarah, it's one of my favourites! :)

What to do on a lazy Sunday... :)

 Yay, it's Sunday!
Time to sent out some postcards to people all over the world :)

Here's my pink 'bag of Happiness', because whenever I open it, 
I know I'm gonna do fun stuff :)


So what's in it?

First of all, of course, my collection of postcards
I go shopping for cards every 2-3 months, because it's a good excuse
to visit a big city or have lunch with a friend :)

I usually buy my cards in a small souvenir shop in Antwerpen, which is close to my hometown
The man who sells cards already knows me... A while ago he brought a box of old postcards for me,
that I could have for free! 
He's such a nice man and I can't even think about buying my cards elsewhere :p


I know that Belgian postcards are not really 'special', because it's not a so-called rare country
But... we do have attractive things! ^^
Last year I took these free entrance tickets for the Atomium and Mini Europe (great 
touristic places in Brussels, capital city of Belgium) and I like to add them to the cards that I send
Another thing that I like to add are small chocolates, wrapped with paintings of old Belgian houses
Yummy! ^^


Finally, I use stickers and pencils to decorate my cards
Last weekend I've bought some washi-tape too, the first tape shows paintings of camera's
and the other tape says: 'Enjoy the blue skies'

Colourfull stickers, flowers & cats & stars

My washi-tape! ^^
Now I can't wait to go back to my postcards again :)
How do you decorate your cards? How much time do you spent on it?
How important do you find it to receive decorated cards?

Have a nice Sunday! :)

A letter from the USA

Today I would like to give some attention to charity
Since one year, I'm writing a letter to a prisoner once in a while, and it makes me very happy


This letter comes from Jessica, a very nice and smart woman
In our letters, we just talk about anything and nothing: our hobbies, what we've been up to
the last couple of weeks, and stuff like that
There's no pressure at all, and I can recommend writing a prisoner to everyone!

What I personally like the most about writing an inmate, 
is the fact that they are always so happy to receive a letter
I really feel that I can make a difference in their life, just by sending an envelope
every now and then

I hope YOU will click on one of the next links :)
It's weekend, so I'm sure you can find some time to write a letter to someone!

Do you use any other website? Please comment underneath :)

TBT: my favourite postcard of all times from Pitcairn

It's Throwback Thursday!
Every Thursday I will post a blog about a postcard that I've already received a while ago

Today I present to you, my card from Pitcairn!


I received it about a year ago from my friend Stein, who was there on vacation
Postcards and other things are only shipped from there once every three months,
so I was very lucky to receive this beautiful card

On the pictures we see the famous Bounty Bay, the Down Rope 
and our friend Miss T, a giant turtle who lives on the island
 
Even the stamps make me dream away...

Who else likes this special card so much? :)
