Odd Shape


I received this postcard through the Postcrossing site, sent by Sun. It travelled 10,739 km in only 51 days. Although I don't understand what this food is, the drawing is beautiful. And, especially, the shape of the postcard fascinates me. And how it survived the postal machines!


And also the back. I never see the name of the country written in Chinese! The stamp belongs to the World Heritage Sites issue of 1998 (20 August), joint with Germany. I am happy that I received the Puning Temple in Chengde.

    1. Yes, I am back :D
      But now, until I am settled again, I'm only sending postcards, not receiving (inactive) mode, because I don't want anything to get lost. I thought I could send some more postcards before leaving Morocco (although I don't have a lot of time to mail right now!).
