I plan on adding written and stamped postcards from each stamp-issuing territory, and listing unusual facts and maps for each of them.
When complete I will hold a lottery and travel to some randomly selected countries. Then this blog will change to a travel one.

#43: First postcard from Tuvalu
Beach view
Coral and Earth Day stamps
Received from Wutotal from Tuvalu.
Tuvalu's nearest neighbours are Kiribati, Nauru, Samoa and Fiji.
official or swap? I'll be going to Poland in a few months and stay there for some time. I hope to get some RARE countries, hehe. I'm not too lucky here in Ireland, the drawing system considers Ireland the RARE one, I guess ;)
This was a direct swap through postcrossing. The sender wanted to raise awareness for "Earth Day". Tuvalu is so low in elevation, with the rising ocean level its in real danger of going under - very sad.
I have a weakness for Irish postcards. Polish stamps are really nice I think :)
Oh yes, Irish cards are great, really beautiful. Stamps... hmm... seen better but can't complain ;) Can I get the details of the swap partner, please? monikucha007@gmail.com ;)
this one must be a treasure in your collection!
ReplyDeleteChuffed I was indeed :)
