I guess that some people have chosen this word for the latest day of the #AtoZChallenge... but still I wanted to upload this nice zebra that Bryon (the USA) sent! (You knew already its cousin the quail, don't you?)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This postcard shows Buddhist Monks passing the Royal Palace in Phnom Pen, Cambodia. This is not the first postcard I have got from that country: back in 2009 and 2010 I swapped some postcards with Zarah.
This one was sent by Ana, though. Ana is from Macedonia, currently living in China, and travelling a lot. So you never know where her next postcard is arriving from: Malaysia, Greece... It can be even the house you were born in (That I call a real mail adventure!)
Actually, this postcard was signed by two people: Ana and... Zarah! I did not know that they were friends! Later, they sent me a picture of them together in front of the post office.
Don't you think sometimes that the world is small?
I never knew the world of postcards is so fascinating...I'm glad to have stumbled upon your blog and making this journey with you.
ReplyDeleteThank you being a part of my A to Z! I enjoyed being a part of yours!

Thanks! I must say that I have also enjoyed your posts a lot... As you already know :)
DeleteI think I'd prefer a mail adventure zebra! Love the two postcards from Bryon, they're cool take on an animal alphabet.
ReplyDeletePhillip | Z is for Zines Zoinks! I made it to the end!
I guess there is a book with the whole alphabet of animals.
DeleteAnd yes... you made it to the end, and so I did!
Love that zebra card.
ReplyDeleteA-Z makes the world a smaller place as well.
Congratulations on reaching the end.
That's true... the world becomes smaller every day!
DeleteThanks for visiting the blog during the challenge, and for your comments.
I love animal alphabets and that's a very cool Z.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed following along on your challenge - thank you!
Thanks, Jz. I must say the same to you :)
DeleteThat is an amaZing coincidence that Ana and Zarah turned out to be friends.
ReplyDeleteThe zebra is neat!
Congrats on completing the challenge! Hope to see you around.
Best wishes always,
Nilanjana.
That kind of coincidences makes my day!
Delete(Thanks again for the postcard!)
Ana and Zarah to close out your AtoZ challenge. Eva, you've outdone yourself, you clever clever person. Nice touch. (And the fact they turned out to be friends is just a cherry on top!)
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations. You helped make it a wonderful month!
I'm blushing now!
DeleteYour blog was one of my favourites. I guess I'm going to miss your (fake) deaths...
I quite enjoyed the 2 alphabet animals you shared this month. The story of a postcard from two friends of yours that you didn't know had a connection is also fun. I am glad I found your space on the net. I look forward to stopping by from time to time to see what adventures you have posted.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your comment. I'll be delighted if you come here from time to time :)
DeleteSuch a lovely story of friendship this postcard from Cambodia seems to unfold.
ReplyDeleteQuite like the handsome Zebra:)
I had a super time visiting you Eva. Your posts were all so unique and dare I say it--short:)

Great job!!
So nice to read your comment, Sarah! :)
DeleteWow, what a small world! It's incredible how a postcard journey can connect us all like this. Such a fun surprise to see my name mentioned in your post! It brought back wonderful memories of my time with Ana in Phnom Penh. She's an amazing friend and adventurous traveler. I'm so glad you’ve experienced the postcard magic firsthand. It's a shame I missed this post when it was first published, but better late than never! :) It’s great to reconnect through my revamped blog.
ReplyDeleteI thought you have read this post, so I am glad you have did now. Yes, this was a fantastic mail adventures, and I still keep this postcard --I love it.
DeleteI'm happy we have reconnect through the blog and the postcards. Sadly, there has been a lot of time since I heard from Ana.
Maybe we can exchange another postcard one day?
